  • Khamenei's Iran and Putin's Russia are allied and supplying each other: fact
  • Hezbollah and Hamas are Iran's proxies: fact
  • Hamas and Hezbollah being destroyed weakens Iran: fact
  • Weakened Iran won't be able to supply Russia with drones and missiles: fact

You can whine about "Israel crimes" all you want, you can't refute the above.

Eliminate funding for r/israelcrimes and most terrorism will vanish 🤷‍♀️

Israel didn't have any funding back when Arab armies first attacked it right after it was founded in 1948, and it still won.

So you are happy to stop getting foreign aid? How was Israel founded again? Super peacefully and with everyone’s consent I’m guessing?

Not peacefully, because it immediately got attacked by surrounding Arab nations (who got their asses handed to them and have been unable to accept defeat ever since for the most part - ironically, those that did, like Egypt, now have perfectly normal relations with Israel)

Oh really? I didn’t know that! So Israel just appeared one day and then those mean Arab nations attacked it for no reason? How did Israel appear? Is there a chance that other countries could just appear nowadays? Have we worked out the science behind it? I always heard Europeans created Israel and then Israelis forcibly displaced hundreds of thousands of Palestinians and therefore Israel is the initial aggressor and every act towards them has been self defence. How wrong was I!!

You heard wrong. The Palestinians were asked to leave by the Arab invaders who promised - and failed - to kill or evict all Israelis. Those who didn't listen still live in Israel to this day as full citizens.

Full and equal citizens? They can vote right?
