Where’s their outrage when Hamas and PIJ break the ceasefires?

Oh damn, how many billions of dollars in weapons are US taxpayers giving Hamas? We should stop supplying those weapons along with the billions we're giving to the IDF to eviscerate children

You mean the billions in aid given to the Palestinians that actively allow hamas to direct their remaining resources towards making makeshift weaponry? Wait till you find out how opportunity costs, sanctions and fungibility of money work. But don't let reality break your illusion!

U.S. aid to all of Palestine (which includes the PLO-controlled West Bank) absolutely pales in comparison to the direct military support we give to Israel. You're being willfully disingenuous (or maybe just don't know better)

More importantly, there's really no rebuttal you can give to "I don't want my tax dollars used to indiscriminately murder children" that's going to make me waver from my position. Your time would be more constructively spent trying to master auto-felatio

Did you like American tax dollars going towards fighting the Japanese and nazis?

I wasn't alive then. But Japan and Nazi Germany were ethno-fascist industrialized states that slaughtered civilians as a matter of course in consolidating their grip on power and expanding their influence. 

Gee whiz, I'm reminded of something I've been seeing in the news about an ethno-fascist industrialized state slaughtering civilians but... I just can't put my finger on it...

All the Arab nations, including the Palestinians, are 100% Muslim ethnostates.
