    The fact that nobody mentioned Israel is the point. I stg. It isn’t a “strawman” to point out possible unintended consequences of supporting a policy.

    “I think I should jump off a tall building.”

    “Are you crazy? You’ll die!”

    “Wow, what a strawman. Nobody even said anything about dying. I don’t support falling to my death, only the jumping.”
