Along with a lot of airstrikes that killed innocent children.

I wonder if this tricking back to Biden's desk is what finally made him pause an ammo shipment.

The revelation of Israel’s use of US weaponry in an unlawful attack comes as the US secretary of state, Antony Blinken, is set to deliver a report to Congress on 8 May on whether he finds credible Israel’s assurances that its use of US weapons do not violate US or international Law.

That piece of JDAM used in the unlawful attack should be express shipped to Blinken's desk or to the podium in Congress where Blinken will deliver the report.

I'm pretty sure he'll find so excuse to conclude Israel's assurances are credible, no mater what.

Israel already put measures in place. They assured America they have destroyed this bomb so it cannot be used to commit war crimes again.

Please send new bomb.

Aren't all Israeli munitions of US origin?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago

No, they also make plenty of their own. Maybe America should let them just use those and see what happens.

Well how in the world did US munitions wind up in Israel???

No shit, the US has been dumping arms into Israel as fast as they can...

That was the whole point of the US sending munitions to Israel.
