And because the US is friends with another country it doesn't mean that country has a right to every single weapon in the arsenal

Sure, every single one. What's the purpose of the arsenal if we're not using it?

What kind of friend won't let you borrow any of the stuff they just keep mothballed in storage?

We should give Israel everything they ask for to eliminate Hamas, who in addition to being the implacable enemy of Israel, is also the implacable enemy of the United States. Why not? Because Palestinians, our enemies, might die in the process? Wow, sucks for them I guess, but they should have tried not being the enemies of two powerful democracies that have been desperately seeking peace with them for 50 years.

That's sick. You really need to take a good look inside yourself and figure yourself out if you are calling for a genocide.

"Your honor, when I killed that family and stole the deed to their house I was in fact desperately seeking peace"

Hey Bob! Can I borrow you chainsaw to cut up a body that I killed yesterday? I'm sure you're not using it right now and we've always been friends
