The Biden administration has told key lawmakers it is sending a new package of more than $1 billion in arms and ammunition to Israel, three congressional aides said Tuesday.

It’s the first arms shipment to Israel to be announced by the administration since it put another arms transfer — consisting of 3,500 bombs — on hold this month. The administration has said it paused that earlier transfer to keep Israel from using the bombs in its growing offensive in the crowded southern Gaza city of Rafah.

    Oh yes, because Christianity is so evil,

    It is…

    it proliferated compassion across the world

    It didn’t…

    It ended slavery

    The Bible is pro slavery…

    created Just War Theory (a moral approach to war),

    Lol

    proliferated the concept of human rights

    It supports fucking slavery and says a wife is a husband property, and sexual acts unless for reproduction is a sin and should be illegal…

    I’m not going to keep going, because I haven’t hit a truthful thing you’ve said yet.

      Are you aware that Western culture is Christian culture? Was Jesus a poor man or a rich man? Was he submissive or a conquering hero? The greatness of a man is his accomplishments… is it not?

      The Bible is pro slavery…

      You must think that atheist ended slavery, that the Civil Rights Movement was atheist. Martin Luther King Jr was an atheist???

      It didn’t…

      Right, because creating the first welfare system was an act of inhumanity. Feeding and clothing the poor was an egregious act.

      The humble, meek, Christian fundamentalist who devotes his life to poverty is absolutely disgusting. For some people, poverty is disgusting.

      I had to chuckle at a left-winger the other day when he told me “communist are anti-religion,” then I prepare for it, a link that shows that Christian Communism existed long before the Bolshevik Revolution. Communism comes from the Bible. Read the Book of Acts, Acts of the Apostles, read your Bible, and learn the scripts of your program

        The staggering irony. Find me a self proclaimed fundie Christian in government who has actually tried to help poor people.
