It’s always the same weapon used in mass shootings, and yet we’re supposed to swallow the idea that it’s politically impossible to ban these because Americans need them to… form a militia? This is insane

Both in Gaza & W Bank, Israel’s actions are failing by their own metrics. Making people destitute, humiliated, destroying education & health, wreaking blistering ruin, defunding alternatives to Hamas—these multiply push factors for radicalisation & sow seeds for future violence.
