The United States has announced the approval of the sale of more than $7.4bn in bombs, missiles and related equipment to Israel, which has used American-made weapons to devastating effect during the war in Gaza.
The state department has signed off on the sale of $6.75bn in bombs, guidance kits and fuses, in addition to $660m in Hellfire missiles, according to the US Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA).
The proposed sale of the bombs “improves Israel’s capability to meet current and future threats, strengthen its homeland defense, and serves as a deterrent to regional threats”, the DSCA said in a statement.
And yet they did nothing to stop the genocides of brown and queer people in America happening now.
I guess only one genocide matters. But then that’s been clear to the Sudanese for years now.
I mean does America have anything to do with that? Your problem is with the Emirates for supporting that genocide.
Yes. Yes it does. The fact that you didn’t even bother to find out just reinforces what I said. Only one genocide matters to certain people.

Okay this was an interesting and informative read but it does nothing to contradict my point. The article is arguing that America didn’t do enough to stop the genocide in Sudan, not that it’s in any way directly supporting the RSF.
What are you even talking about now?
This is what I said:
That has nothing to do with supporting anyone. Exactly the opposite. People who need support are getting none. Because their genocide does not matter to the world. Which is the same thing that will happen when the genocide of queer people in the U.S. reaches that level.
Because queer people don’t matter and if they die, it doesn’t matter. Even if they’re Palestinian. Any Palestinian-American who gets put in a camp for being queer? Who cares when Biden supported the only genocide that’s apparently worth caring about?
And I’m saying that the reason people are/were making so much noise amount about the Gaza genocide in relation to the election is because it was funded and protected by America. A genocide happening on the other side of the world and the government actively funding a genocide on the other side of the world are completely different things that call for completely different responses.
Yes, I realize you want to continue litigating the election as if it matters and that doing so will somehow help Palestine.
I just don’t know how it helps anything.
It sure doesn’t help with any other genocide going on in the world. But as I said, those don’t matter apparently.
Okay what point are you trying to make here? Yes other genocides exist what about that?
You pretending my points that people only care about one genocide as if it’s the only genocide and that people like you are still litigating the election as if it matters were not made despite my literally making both of them is noted.
Let me know when you decide to stop litigating the election and decide to actually do something that will make a change.
