And I’m being serious. I feel like there might be an argument there, I just don’t understand it. Can someone please “steelman” that argument for me?

      I mean we literally just saw the same kind of thing play out with Ukraine.

      The West spent a long time giving them weaponry that could either only or mainly be used defensively, and then slowly over time gave them more and more potent weapons.

      Its not like this is some revolutionary new idea.

      The US could have started doing this after like month two or three of Israel carpet bombing Gaza, shooting up UN food/aid convoys…

      But nope.
