The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, today called for the resignation of U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken after he reportedly lied to Congress after two government authorities concluded that Israel deliberately blocked deliveries of humanitarian aid to Gaza.
According to ProPublica: “The U.S. Agency for International Development delivered its assessment to Secretary of State Antony Blinken and the State Department’s refugees bureau made its stance known to top diplomats in late April. Their conclusion was explosive because U.S. law requires the government to cut off weapons shipments to countries that prevent the delivery of U.S.-backed humanitarian aid. Israel has been largely dependent on American bombs and other weapons in Gaza since Hamas’ Oct. 7 attacks.
I’m not denying those reports exist or anything, I’m saying they certainly have competing documents that say the exact opposite. If it’s 2 reports that say something different out of 5, you’d have a hard time making the case he deliberately lied.
Why do you assume this?
Because that’s how government entities work. If you have two humanitarian groups saying there is a problem, you’ll have many military groups saying the exact opposite.
USAID backed up their report with evidence there is no room for denial here. Blinken intentionally lied.
You can say whatever you want about it, and downvote me to no end (I had nothing to do with it), just giving you facts. Go back and look at every administration since Nixon and you’ll find almost the exact same thing happening. A few reports versus whatever other Intel they have isn’t going to matter much.
“We had other Intel that said this was not the case”
Bank on that being said over and over if he’s called to testify.
No you’re not, you’re just imagining convenient countering reports. Sure, maybe they could put together some fake report, but it’s not anything they’ve claimed and a cover report without actual facts behind it isn’t actually a counter.
Lol, go ahead and use your own bullshit reasoning to get where you need to be, buddy.
“Convenient countering reports”? What is that exactly? 🤣 You and your cohorts around here are out of your league if all you can do is slowly downvote. 🤣
These are things that have happened. If you’re just ignorant to that, go ahead a read about. Here’s some links to get you started:

Certainly seems like facts to me, but y’know, be an ignorant fool and ignore it and continue whatever dumb bullshit you want 🤡
You are a very weird person that just keeps doubling down on unsubstantiated claims while whining about downvotes. People aren’t “just slowly downvoting”, they’re pointing out that you’re just making up a report that would counter the reports that actually exist. And your only response to that is conspiracy minded “there have been past fabrications, therefore my positive assertion that reports must exist is fact”. That’s not what a fact is.
Literal links above. Don’t know what else you need. If you’re not going to read up, then that’s your problem 🤣
“you can say whatever you want about it” why keep talking when you just announced to everyone you are not here for discussion but to just announce your incorrect opinion?
You are what’s wrong with these communities. You aren’t looking for discussion you are looking for bias confirmation. Or your intentionally doing it which is worse.
“They had contradictory reports” isn’t facts, it’s fanfic.
Riiiight. Colin Powell lying to the UN and Congress with photos and dossiers is fanfic. Suiuuure.
You should report back to very important job at The Pentagon before they realize you’re not there and instead wasting time in the internet!
Colin Powell died in 2021. What does he have to do with the contradictory reports you made up to claim that Blinken saw?
Lol. If you’re not even reading the thread, I’m not wasting my time recalling for you. Blocked.
