A Bronx office of the US House member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was vandalized early on Monday, according to New York City police, who say they are investigating.
The vandalism occurred after Ocasio-Cortez on Friday voted against a defense spending bill amendment authored by the Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia that would have eliminated funding for the system protecting Israel from missiles.
Her vote on Greene’s amendment prompted the Democratic Socialists of America to issue a statement accusing Ocasio-Cortez of backing Israel’s “eliminationist campaign against the Palestinian people”.
I don’t agree with it, but I do understand why she voted against it. the amendment was just to stop support for defense capabilites, it did nothing to stop the supply of weapons they’re using to kill Palestinians.
They do have the right to defend themselves. They do not have the right to kill the people they don’t like, and the amendment did nothing in that regard.
Personally I think if they were not helped paying for the dome, maybe they’d be forced to spend less on killing others, and divert that to defense.
Would you support sending Flak cannons to Adolf Hitler so he can shoot British bombers out of the sky?
Nazi 👏 Germany👏 Has 👏 A 👏 Right 👏 To👏 Exist!
Your woke leftism would have them bombing the innocent people of Dresden! And for what?!
I bet you’re going to say we should nuke Japan, next, you monster!

No, Israel does not. Jacobin, 2021: As an Occupier, Israel Has No Right to “Self-Defense”
The Palestinians meanwhile have not only the right to self-defense but also offense against their occupiers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestinian_right_of_armed_resistance
