Israel is making demands? I'm so sick of our government letting this rabid dog bite the hand that feeds it. It's well past time for us to give them the shock collar.
I agree that ending arms shipments to Israel is the correct action. But don't labor under the illusion that the US can "force" Israel to do anything. I can think of numerous instances in the past where Israel defied and betrayed her patrons. And not just the US, but also the UK and the Soviet Union.
I can only think of one instance where Israel backed down due to pressure, and that was the Suez Crisis. And that took the combined influence of the US, the Soviet Union, and the UN. (as well as help from Canadian diplomats.) Not to mention that Israel was a partner of the UK and France for this adventure and thus didn't have the final say.
Straight from the Ayatollah's rhetoric, thought that sounded familiar.

I mean… I don’t … is this supposed to make him look bad? Cuz all of that is true? He isn’t even saying anything bad in those quotes?
But also… rabid dog is a pretty normal metaphor for something you’re supposed to be in control of that attacks everything around it so like…. Eh.
Being an evil person doesn't mean you're wrong about everything just like being a good person doesn't mean you're right about everything
