    That’s a false premise argument you just made - The OP isn’t stating that money shouldn’t be sent. It’s that Canada should treat the primary issue on why the aid needs to be sent in the first place instead of support it with military armament.

    Hope that helps clear it up.

      The government is trying to improve the lives of Palestinians. Does promoting hatred improve the lives of Palestinians? If you spent more time helping people rather than hating people things have a chance of improving.

        Oh sweety, you’re still confused. Here, I’ll explain it slower:

        Kid1 gives kid2 a baseball bat.

        Kid2 beats up kid3 repeatedly.

        Kid1 can take the bat away anytime, but doesn’t. Instead, he gives kid3 candy.

        It doesn’t mean kid1 is doing a good job.

        If you want to talk like a child, you can get treated like a child.
