Because AOC gave them half a $billion to keep doing so.

First, AOC voted against the bill. She voted against giving them any funding.

Second, even if she had voted in favor of the bill, she's not the only member of Congress, so dumping sole blame on her wouldn't even make sense if the false claims were true.

But yes, let's eat our own over a political stunt by a racist conspiracy theorist (MTG). Those primaries won't lose themselves!

Iron Dome protects Israel as it invades its neighbours and commits a genocide. It's that simple.

No, it protects Israel regardless of whether Israel is committing genocide. But all of that is beside the point.

You are defending a vote against stripping iron dome funding,

I'm not defending the vote so much as pointing out that it was a meaningless vote. There's nothing to defend or attack because the amendment is a non-issue. It was a meaningless political stunt by a racist conspiracy theorist.

accusing others of being in favour of killing civilians

Favour? As in British or Australian English? You're not an American voter? This seems like a pointless discussion then.

whilst trying to claim you also don't support funding Israel.

I don't support funding for Israel. It's an apartheid state and has committed genocidal war crimes.

You can't have it both ways.

You can if you see the nuance and not just look at everything like it's just so simple based on your first gut reaction.

You support killing of civilians with your own stupid fucking rhetoric,

No, I don't. Quote me where I said I want civilians killed.

but you want to dance around the issue and pretend you aren't doing what you are in fact doing.

You're getting caught up in side issues. The issue is AOC voted against funding genocide in Israel. People are claiming she funded genocide by Israel. That is a provably false claim. It is a lie. Arguing over the amendment vote that didn't matter is a distraction.

You are genuinely a fucking moron. I said nothing about Dresden or dropping nukes.

You were discussing the deaths of civilians. Those are historical events relevant to that discussion. Also, there's no need for the ad hominems and name-calling.

You are literally advocating for sending AA guns to Hitler by equating and reducing all forms of military response as being one and the same as mass murder of civilians to suggest it's legitimate to support funding for the Iron Dome as "defensive".

I'm literally not. I was responding to your meaningless points that don't matter because you brought them up, but you haven't thought through all the implications. AA guns shoot down planes that have human beings in them. They aren't the same as missiles that only shoot down other missiles.

All of these discussions about AA guns and Russian civilians are just bad analogies that ignore the context and the nuance. We can continue to discuss them if you like, but they have no bearing on whether the amendment vote was ever possibly going to have any functional or practical effect whatsoever.

If MTG brought up an amendment that said everyone gets to live forever and AOC voted against it, would you claim AOC is pro-death or would you recognize that MTG's proposal was a useless measure that shouldn't be taken seriously?

But honestly, I don't care. If you're not an American voter, as I suspect you aren't, there's no value in convincing you of anything.

Would you support funding an iron dome for Russia against Ukraine?

I wouldn't personally support funding anything in Russia or Israel.

A gun doesn't stop being a weapon because you used it in self defence, idiot.

A gun is an offensive weapon. It's not useful for self defense. You can't shoot bullets out of the air easily. There's no need for useless name-calling.

By funding arms to Israel

Except she voted against said funding by voting against the bill.

to protect it from consequences of committing a genocide

The iron dome existed before the current genocide. But you're literally saying that civilians in Israel should die because the people in control of the government and military are committing genocide. That's not justice. That's advocating for murder as a form of revenge on a group when everyone in the group is not responsible for the preceding injustice. You're applying the same logic as conservatives who pretend every Palestinian is a terrorist.

and invading and bombing multiple neighbours, which then allows it to act with further impunity to keep doing what it's doing.

I'd be interested in defending Israel entirely. The conservatives in the majority in Congress will not allow that to happen. However AOC voted or even if she abstained, the results would not be any different.

She straight up declared anyone who voted for it effectively a nazi. She called Tlaib and Omar nazis.

She literally didn't say that. If she did, you could quote her saying "Tlaib and Omar are Nazis." You're assigning that meaning to her words and then getting upset at your own interpretation.
