AOC juelzing when asked why she voted for the iron dome to Israel

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

Getting us into Iraq then trying to get us to invade Iran.

Keep going.

 

[Geek Nasty]

Keep going.

They use their political influence in the US to drive an anti-Palestinian pro-Occupation US policy thats the root of hostilities between us and Middle Eastern countries.

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

People devote their entire lives to following this mess, even falling out with neighbors and coworkers over it

Meanwhile these politicians are all playing a game

You can't go against israel in new york.
She wants to keep/advance her career.
Expect more of this.

They're all essentially answering to the same lobbyist and power players at the end of the day.

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Seems like she's talking out of BOTH SIDES of her mouth

And tell this bytch the Bronx don’t care about Israel or Palestinians

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

They use their political influence in the US to drive an anti-Palestinian pro-Occupation US policy thats the root of hostilities between us and Middle Eastern countries.

Middle Eastern countries don't give a flying eff about Palestinians. They proved that last year when they were so eager to sign Trump's peace deal that essentially threw the Palestinians to the wolves and they was all happy to do it.

That showed me a lot when that happened.

 

[Strapped]

She voted for it because pelosi told her to

 

[MischievousMonkey]

Yall are ignorant as hell. Yall complain about the money given to Israel but America gives them money because they are its only real foothold in the middle east. With Israel there, they are able to exert their influence and will over a region half a globe away and do things that inevitably benefit Americans (i.e. have a hand on oil production which we need for gasoline, not to mention the supply chain in that part of the world, and if there are ppl in the area trying to get at Americans, they can handle that using Israel as their middle east headquarters if they have to).

For all intents and purposes, Israel is an extension of America in the middle east that serves a range of purposes and y'all dumbasses complain about this all the time cause you have a kindergarten level understanding of geopolitics.

That's an honest and logical answer. But then, why is she pretending to care about defending the interests of the Palestinians?

 

[skylove4]

That’s the way she wants it though. She wants to be front and center. Can’t have the attention when it benefits you but not be expected to be held accountable when it doesn’t.

Does she want to be front and center or is it just common sense things that help people that she supports make people clutch their pearls

this lady actually cares about people in America at least more than the vast majority of politicians and y’all hate her

 

[NYChase718]

The macro and the micro

She probably does personally care. Unfortunately she's not there to represent her personal feelings. Shes there to serve in government and all that entails.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Those male counterparts aren’t the face and leader of the Progressive Party nor the leader and most popular member of “The Squad”.

None of that means much outside of her district. She has a nice platform and that's cool but in Congress she's really a nobody..

 

[MischievousMonkey]

She probably does personally care. Unfortunately she's not there to represent her personal feelings. Shes there to serve in government and all that entails.

So, bottomline, she should kill that noise since how she feels personally is irrelevant to her politics and how she votes. I understand people being mad and calling that juelzing.

 

[Pull Up the Roots]

obviously someone with power put her into her position and when she lashes out they remind her they created her and they can destroy her. I wouldn't be surprised if they have some type of blackmail on her too that's how these people roll. shyt, Nixon got into politics by answering a classified ad in the paper of some rich guys looking to back a person to run for congress. You cant win unless A. the party backs you B. you got the funds to run. Average person not winning shyt.

She was an average person who won and was funded w/ small-dollar donations.

She voted for it because pelosi told her to

The thread title is a lie. She didn't vote for it.
