Blinken told Congress, “We do not currently assess that the Israeli government is prohibiting or otherwise restricting” aid, even though the U.S. Agency for International Development and others had determined that Israel had broken the law.
God damnit all. I mean we knew Blinken was lying, deliberately not seeing the truth. But they couldn’t even get the actual state department to go along with it. They literally just fucking lied about their own investigation. And the most infuriating thing about it is these guys aren’t dumb. They knew something like this would come and from a respected source.
If we want to keep Israel as an ally there has to be accountability. The American people didn’t stand for South African apartheid and they won’t stand for this. It’s political suicide here at home and we’re going to end up with our most sensitive military technology in the hands of a rogue state.
