For the second time this month the Biden administration is bypassing Congress to approve an emergency weapons sale to Israel as Israel continues to prosecute its war against Hamas in Gaza under increasing international criticism.

When the only source for your argument is “because I said so”, that makes the person who said it the only logical target for any rebuttal.
While this person’s statements aren’t popular here because they’re not in complete alignment and support of the Lemmy pro-Palestine position and they’re upsetting the groupthink…they are also not incorrect, and nothing they’ve said actually supports the actions of the Israeli government or even really takes a position on the current fighting in any way. They’re just explaining the diplomatic situation and how it informs US actions to other commenters who don’t seem to have that perspective.
If anything they said was wrong, by all means make that point…but so far all I’ve seen is them explaining a harsh and uncomfortable truth, those who don’t want to hear it shooting the messenger, and then when they’re sticking to their guns and restating their points, here you are calling it a personal attack.
What they’re saying isn’t what people here like hearing, but it’s the reality of the bigger picture in many ways.

even if this were what is happening (it’s not), this is still not an excuse to break the community rules.
