I appreciate some of the points you are making, but I was responding to this statement that you made twice: "Her trying to parse out defensive vs offensive is a manipulation and a shallow sales job."

You're being deceptive if you are implying that AOC voted against reducing weapons to Israel and then tried to spin it by creating a distinction between offensive and defensive weapons.

AOC voted against the entire bill, rejecting all funding for Israel's military.

MTGs amendment cut funding of Israel's Iron Dome program. This is a defensive system, of course it is useful during war time but it is still a defensive system. AOC is not creating this distinction, it exists. I linked to the state department's site which indicates that the funding is considered separate from other military funding for Israel.

MTG wrote an amendment that is progressive and that all progressives must support? BS

If AOC had voted against a stand alone bill to eliminate Iron Dome funding then everyone's points would be completely valid and warranted. That's not what happened.
