They already “responded” in exactly the way you’d expect:

The White House said it was “deeply disturbed” by the killing of a U.S. citizen and called on Israel to investigate what happened.

The leadership of both parties treat the fascist apartheid regime exactly like they treat American fascists in uniform (cops, in case there was any doubt) murdering people.

Apparently US doesn’t have problems even if Israel attacks their own warships… en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Liberty_incidentWhy would a bunch of individuals matter…

No, not until people stop clinging to religion as a weapon and a shield.

Here is the question that I’ll pose for debate:

Is a US citizen protected by the US armed forces if they chose to enter an active warzone as a non-combatant without the consent of the US government?

Please explain your answer.

West Bank isn’t an active war zone

The USA allows you to visit anywhere you want, and they maintain a travel advisory list for every country. Both Israel and the West Bank are listed as “High Security Risk”, not “Do Not Travel”. You can still visit “Do Not Travel” places at mostly your own risk.

The reason given for the advisory is “terrorism and civil unrest”. Nowhere in their explanation does it say you will be actively shot at by the acting “defense” force or police.

Hell considering the circumstances, it’s probably better to avoid run ins with the IDF, which is the opposite of what the advisory says to do lol.

Doesn’t fucking matter. The US doesn’t look at national government forces killing American civilians neutrally in any circumstance - except, it seems, in the case of Israel. This isn’t some paramilitary or rebel group that killed an American civilian. This is literally the security forces of an ‘ally’.

Will the U.S. Ever Respond?

I don’t know, why don’t we try asking Rachel Corrie.

Oh wait, she’s been dead for over twenty years and the US still hasn’t made a stink about her being killed by Israeli occupiers who were literally in the process of stealing Palestinian land.

Further, as others have pointed out, Aysenur Ezgi Eygi isn’t even as lucky as Rachel Corrie to have a white sounding name that US citizens might give a shit about. Meaning it’s even more likely that Eygi’s story will get brushed under the rug and forgotten.

The obvious answer to the headline is no.

The answer to any headline that’s a question is no

I actually found an article that breaks the rule:

The obvious answer is yes, the US will continue to send more and more weapons and bombs to Israel forever. I wish it would end. But it won’t.

So the response to this will be MORE KILLING MACHINES

Viking_Hippie ,

Continuing like before is by definition a LACK of response, though.

Might as well say that you’re responding to the decline of Polish snail husbandry by still not knowing much about Polish snail husbandry.
