I was providing an example of lawyers being dishonest. To anyone else, it would be as obvious as saying the sky is blue, but since they looked the other way in order to enable genocide, you think they're incapable of lying.

So the blame is on the US and not Israel?

Because it's within our power to cease weapons sales and we don't.

which anyone with half a brain knows we have to

The Leahy law says otherwise. But when I brought it up last time, you decided to pretend that you didn't know who I meant by "us."

Well, they're currently doing just that. They will continue to do so as long as we keep selling them weapons.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 0 points 7 hours ago

They were actual lawyers.

So were the Supreme Court justices that overturned Roe. You're telling me that lawyers are trustworthy.

I don't want the United States to ignore the Leahy Law in order to sell weapons that Netanyahu will use to commit genocide.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

The United States government in this case, as they are bound by the law.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 0 points 7 hours ago

Sure. Like state when they pretended that there's no genocide in Gaza.

Guess I was wrong. You can't stop gaslighting.

I’ll give you a quick ELI5, Iran will run roughshot over the middle east if there isn’t someone there to keep them inline. Israel is that someone.

Israel has nuclear weapons and can defend themselves just fine with the conventional weapons they already possess. They do not need our assistance in committing genocide.

I'll repeat the question you completely ignored in favor condescension and flimsy excuses for genocide:

How does that exempt us from the Leahy Law?
