Reply to comment by Mazcal in Israeli Elbit Systems Reveals New Drone to Be Used in Occupied West Bank by aa-coding

If you cliked on the links and checkd the sources of the article you'd have seen that report by the Congressional Research Service mentions Elbiet everal times several times in https://sgp.fas.org/crs/mideast/RL33222.pdf

And according to CNN Saudi Arabia paid $500 million to the US military

Also Ad Hominem is a logical fallacy- like it shouldn't matter who said it - you should judge Ideas on their merit alone.

Yes, and I have friends who worked in Elbit too. Projects are funded individually, when they are meant to be produced in the US or when they benefit American weapon platforms such as fighter HUD systems which I have mentioned. It doesn’t mean that this project gets any US funding, and if it did, it wouldn’t be for the drones deployed by the IDF. The IDF is a separate entity than Elbit - a company from which the IDF will need to buy systems just like any other country.

I did not attack anyone ad hominem - I said he recited propaganda when saying that Israel buys drones for the sole purpose of killing children - which is kindergarten level propaganda. There is no merit to that claim.

But their point is still valid- The US govt gives money to this company - this company makes it easier for Isreal to commit human rights violations- one of those is killing children. Like I you can remian ignorant and try to split hairs but logic always wins in the end, you can tell your friends as Elbit that too.
