US is saving money from funds that is used for education and science, instead of war. they're spending a lot of money for Israel and its war in Gaza. No one questions that money. it is insane

The US isn't saving money on this. The IRS is predicting $500 billion shortfall in revenue from layoffs in tax enforcement alone.

Israel and its *genocide in Gaza, according to Amnesty International[1]. Let's call it like it is, so that the funding may be stopped sooner rather than later.

edit: To those who disagree, do feel free to explain why. Being against genocide is apolitical, for any reasonable definition of the word. I promise you cannot guess at my voting patterns from this opinion of mine.
Israel has been genociding for decades, and saying it never changed anything. I don't see why it would suddenly happen now.
How close are they to succeding? What was the population when they started and how much has it been reduced?
Nothing new, been that way for a long time. There is plenty of money for killing people, none for keeping people alive.
Knowledge is power. Take away peoples knowledge and they have no power.
They should make "the right bear books" an amendment.
Every empire has fallen the same way - spending money on wars and games.
But wars don't cost anything because Europe will pay.
