Just so it doesn’t get understated, there has literally never been a single change in US relations with Israel since 1948. This is the single biggest policy change the State department has ever made.
What policy change are you referring to? I didn’t see any mentioned in the article. Looks like business as usual despite the clear evidence of genocide aided by US weaponry
This is a public signal by the State department, which has influence backed by federal law. It’s a warning that the bombs will dry up if any US arms are used in the aid of war crimes. Yes. Everyone knows that US arms have been used in Israeli war crimes. That’s the point of the message, and will have enormous shifts in foreign policy by the entirety of NATO.
Edit: the direct answer to your question is that the US has never warned Israel like this. They have never threatened to end military aid.
Well lets just hope it is not an empty warning and that they follow through with action … quickly. Israel has grown used to being patted on the head for all its atrocities over the decades. I doubt they will back off with just a warning.
Alright I get that… but that’s not a policy change… maybe seems pedantic but a policy change is a codified change in institutional behavior. That’s quite different from a warning or public signal
Bush and Reagan actually blocked arms for israel.
This is a giant gaslighting nothing burger from Genocide Joe.
Oh damn the Russian bots getting desperate
This is what he’s talking about:
The fact that you don’t even know about this speaks volumes.
You can open Google you know.
That won’t stop a huge amount of people from complaining that this “isn’t enough” and failing to appreciate what a monumental victory that this is.
Not satisfied that this doesn’t go far enough? Keep protesting! It works!
I genuinely don’t understand what victory you’re referring to… much less some monumental victory. Am I missing something?
How many times do you need it explained to you?
Once? The only other comment I left was asking what policy change someone was referring to

Half assing a report saying that Israeli maybe used US weapons against civilians after 6 months of Israel blatantly murdering civilians with US weapons is definitely not enough lol.
Israel seems to be going ahead with their full assault on Rafah which means the ceasefire deal is probably down the gutter.
So it would be enough if Biden actually follows through with serious consequences for Israel. He stopped one shipment as a threat so far, so I’m patiently waiting to see how he reacts.
Vote for Trump then, since you’re willing to ignore any concept of reason or sense
That won’t stop a huge amount of people from complaining that this “isn’t enough” and failing to appreciate what a monumental victory that this is.
Came back here just to tell you this halted shipment lasted a whopping 3 days before Biden approved a new 1.1 billions arms sale to Israel.
How dare I not be able to predict the future!
Another day, another DNC shill lol
And who are you voting for?
