these hoodlums come in with machine guns – M4, an American-made machine gun
The M4 is not a machine gun. And there’s no way to tell where it’s made without close inspection, which I doubt he was able to make. IWI makes several AR-pattern rifles in Israel. The story is bad enough without wild and baseless stuff like that.
A lot of those rifles make their way to settlers’ hands through various channels.
And machine gun is just vernacular for a fully automatic rifle.
Making it loudly known that you’re ammosexual doesn’t detract from the point the Congressman was making, which is that it’s fucking ridiculous to have a bunch of plain clothes teenagers pointing weapons that the US gave them just for visiting a village that they decided to vandalize days prior.
Red dot vs laser sight, machine gun vs AR, silencer vs suppressor — who gives a shit about the right terminology? You understand perfectly what he’s saying and what happened.
Machine gun, assault rifle, whatever. It shoot many bullets make you go owwie.
It is a US made gun in general and is used by the US military and thus very likely to have been supplied by them I think was the point? Sure it could’ve been made elsewhere, but seeing US military gear used to essentially kidnap a US politician should be a bigger deal than a lot of media is making it.
