In a sense, by packaging this massive decision in with the rest of the bill, voting no on it makes it feel like one doesn't support the US military, which is not how most politicians feel. But by packaging it together, you pass a highly controversial idea that very few constituents would support. Representative democracy is an illusion.

May be an image of text that says 'Unfortunately, the Rule passed just now and no debate or vote was allowed on section 219, integration of US military technology and supply chains with Israel's. The NDAA will receive a recorded vote tomorrow with section 219 in it. 't vote no. -Thomas Massie c'

" The heroism of war isa lie. 
The glory of war is a mask put on to  to cover the despair of people without hope. 
Every life is disposable for a national or political ideal.
When the rich wage war it's the poor who die.
The sacrifice is made by those who have the least to gain.' - JW
