Italy has reportedly stopped supporting Israel militarily, but still remains committed to peace and continuing ongoing traditions of the two cultures by arguing over it loudly during dinner.
We look forward to further debate in which rapid hand movements and speaking loudest stress the most important points.
Several European countries paused or restricted arms exports with Israel during its military action in Gaza.
The offensive was triggered by the Hamas-led attack on Israel on 7 October 2023, which killed about 1,200 people, while 251 others were taken to Gaza as hostages.
More than 72,330 people were then killed by Israeli military action Gaza - including 757 since the ceasefire began on 10 October 2025 - according to the territory's Hamas-run health ministry.
fuck the bbc - I know I shouldn't be surprised anymore but the audacity to say "well acktually Isntreal was provoked to kill tens of thousands of civilians in Gaza (or that's what the evil Khamas health ministry wants you to believe)" in an article about it's invasion of Lebanon is insane
why not mention how they've killed hundreds of people in Lebanon - during a supposed ceasefire with Iran - so even if all those people were Hezbollah (spoilers they ain't) it still wouldn't be justified
at least with the likes of Fox or GBNews you know they're wackos from the start - the fact most British people are swayed to believe anything the bbc says is a crime against critical thought
Many Euro defense manufacturers use crucial Israeli components, from Elbit, for example. Redesign and replacements is hard, expensive, and would take time.
Not good.
EDIT: not good for the European defense industry, because they have been effectively backdoored by Nazisrael
It's weapons. There are always companies willing to take over someone else's business. Whatever interruption may occur, it won't last, and if they aren't actively using their weapons, they'll be caught back up quickly.

Italy renewed the defence agreement and THEN suspended automatic renewal.
Misleading headline.

I just wanted to finish watching this season of Genocide in Gaza before switching to Hulu to start Iranian Oil Tankers

I believe they were referring to the lady in the article looking like someone else.

My reply was supposed to sound like Philomena Cunk, sorry if it didn't, I am just a fan and certainly no writer.

Oh fantastic. I am clearly not fan enough to notice. Ignore me.

When Giorgia Mussolini is more humane and progressive than the United States government...

I heard Lamborghini artillery and Balenciaga urban camos weren't very good anyway.

No, but Leonardo is a pretty big defence company. For example, the deck gun on the Isearli corvettes is a Leonardo gun. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sa%27ar_6-class_corvette (Oto Melara is part of Leonardo).

Benelli and Beretta are somewhat well-known brands also.

Balenciaga isn't Italian... Nor is Lamborghini nowadays.

Still better than being complicit in genocide, repeated war crimes, and the illegal occupation of lands

Is your point that it would be a shame if Israel didn't get it's advanced munitions? You do know they are the devil?
elucubra@sopuli.xyz · 4 pts · 127d
No. Israel Is the devil. I just phrased it wrong. I meant that it's not good for European defense. They have been essentially backdoor Ed.
