Gotta bundle it in with Ukraine so they can buy sympathy I guess.
2000lb dumb bombs
Money to bribe them to stop? Realistically they’ll go until they feel safe. Do you know what else should help them feel safe? More ammo for their anti middle defense. More infrastructure to rebuild the wall. More surveillance to prevent the next attack. None of which is an offensive weapon against Palestinians
None of that will help until they stop oppressing Palestinians. You can't security or military solution your way out of making enemies out of an entire population. Even lots of Israelis realize that Netanyahu's solution isn't working, they need to work on a diplomatic solution, one state or two state, something.

Corrected spelling thanks
Betraying the Constitution comes first though. We can prosecute them for failing the rest of the world next.
I know they're doing it because they hate brown people in their country more than brown people abroad, but kudos (?????) to the Republicans for blocking Israeli aid. Tragic that Ukraine is getting caught up in this mess.
Trump sucks a lot of dick, the most dick, the best dick.
The term betrayal implies they once had the peoples' best interest in mind and were working on their behalf. The party may have betrayed the people 200 years ago, but what we are seeing today is not a betrayal.
