Biden did not bypass Congress in the sense that Congress would have in any way blocked it, just slightly increased the speed that it happened. What was sold in that deal (anti tank missiles) are not being used in Palestine but are a deterrent for Israel against Iran escalating due to isreals deplorable genocide. The headlines make it seem like anti personal weapons to be used in their genocide but that’s not what those are but no one ever thinks about any nuance at all or (gasp) reads the articles.
The Biden administration has used an emergency authority to allow the sale of about 14,000 tank shells to Israel without congressional review, the Pentagon said on Saturday.
WASHINGTON — Going around Congress, the Biden administration said Saturday it has approved the emergency sale to Israel of nearly 14,000 rounds of tank ammunition worth more than $106 million as Israel intensifies its military operations in the southern Gaza Strip.
These are the tank shells that israel uses in Gaza to blow up buildings and commit Genocide with in Gaza (and burn israelis to crisps in Kibbutzes). An anti-tank round means it’s strong enough to blow up a tank, not that it can only blow up tanks.
b) Those are shells not missles. Anti Tank missiles imply something like a ATGMs.
People believe that Israel is a puppet of the United States in the same way that North Korea is a puppet of China. Israel is seen as a forward operating base of the American empire that provides a beachhead and a port in the middle east for our aircraft carriers and corporations. Without Israel, we would not for decades have had highly securely placed missiles and armaments within range of Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Egypt, etc.
Netanyahu and Likud are nationalists who are pulling on their leash and are making us look terrible in front of the world rn. And Netanyahu would personally likely prefer a world run by Putin rather than the current Western Rules-Based International Order that enforces principles such as human rights, and anti-corruption, and term limits for democratically elected representatives, and judicial independence.
It is unclear how we will address these issues that he has created. But no, people do not see Israel as being a fully independent country in the same way that India or Thailand, for instance, are fully independent countries
Do people actually believe that Israel is the United States or do troll games just not put in any effort
People believe Biden bypassed congress to give israel weapons which they are committing Genocide with.
While israel was already committing Genocide.

The deal was tank and mortar shells. The primary ammo used to destroy buildings and commit Genocide with in Gaza. Not anti tank missles.
