    How much humanitarian aid would this have been in dollars?

      Simply not sending these weapons would be humanitarian aid

      Probably about 10% of what it will cost to rebuild Palestine (assuming that Palestinians aren’t ethnically cleansed from all of Palestine).

      I don’t know how to interpret, “How much humanitarian aid would [50,000 tons of weapons] have been in dollars?”

        “What would the value of this be if it were spent on humanitarian aid instead?”

    No but don’t worry, several people have assured me Kamala Harris is really going to get the ceasefire this time.

    She totally isn’t lying about it which is why she banned Palestinians from speaking at the DNC.

    Definitely gonna see that ceasefire as soon as she becomes president I swear.
