    The condoms aren't used for the normal purpose.  They are used in battle to distribute some substance.  I caught the last few seconds of an explanation a few minutes ago.  I may try to find out about it but it's not really important to me.

    Your "proof" is from 2018.  Here's something more current:

    "The US Agency for International Development’s spending on injectable contraceptives, contraceptive implants, IUDs, male condoms, oral contraceptives, Standard Days Method and female condoms amounted to $60 million in the fiscal year of 2023, and that was across the globe — not just Gaza."

    You are just parroting what Leavitt said.  Who the heck is she?  Where's the proof that all that money went to Gaza for condoms?  No proof at all.

    I don't know, maybe they'll start making effigies of Trump from the mangled remains of their homes, and start worshipping them?

    Actually, I just looked it up and they were using them to make IEDs. Now, why was the US funding them?

     Presumably, the Gazans have the appropriate audit trail, detailing every single condom bought with the ,50m can be linked to an IED.

    Don't be a terrorist, or vote for a terrorist group to be your government and your home will not be mangled. 

    If the GAZA people want peace all they have to do is be peaceful and not attack Israel. This deal has been offered over and over again.  Israel has given land for peace over and over again, yet the peace never comes.

    The MONEY was being sent to them currently. 

    Our Goverment has known about Hamas terrorists using condoms as weapons IEDs etc since at least 2018.  Why did Biden try to send this money recently.  Trump admin just stopped the $50M from being sent.

    Perhaps you didn't understand that the money was not just for Gaza.  I even bolded the part that it was worldwide.  I guess that means nothing to you.

    GAZA is in Israel. It is Israeli land.   There is NO country of GAZA, GAZA Strip, West Bank, Palestine etc.   
    Regardless of how people decide to make their map.

    It is Israeli land.

    Gaza is a city in the Palestinian territory known as the Gaza Strip. Whether or not Palestine is a state depends on the country you live in or in some cases, your individual belief. There is a long and complicated history and I don't understand it enough to comment. This post was edited by Jane S at January 29, 2025 12:13 PM MST

    I'm aware—just curious why it was being written (repeatedly, at this point) in all caps, hence the supposed acronym.

    Of course. I wondered why you asked. I think someone is being shouty and emphasizing that the US is sending humanitarian aid to what they consider Very Bad People. Or maybe she thinks it's like USA.
