I mean, it's one organization out of God knows how many Bill gives to. If you're giving 20$ yearly to a hundred different nonprofits that's 2000$.

Fully loaded guns. Watermelons (provides nutrition and water) are also a good candidate.

to restore democracy and establish better guardrails, more accountability to the people instead of in service of capital.

They'd (literally, it seems) rather die than do that, so good luck.

It will not go the way it did in California.

California was systematically disarmed during the Civil Rights era so that wouldn't surprise me, but just in case how common is gun ownership in Chicago?

Long term robust peace talks, and both sides choosing leaders willing to forge a lasting peace with concessions is the only way forwards.

And for anything like that to happen, Israel needs to abandon its colonialist ambitions, because there can be no peace as long as settlements are being built. Once that happens, the peace talks you're talking about can happen. This is not conjecture; we've seen this in action before multiple times.

Okay this is apparently one of those things where you'll get different answers depending on who you ask (even different Wikipedia articles give different answers), but this is a matter of semantics. No matter what you call it, mixing on a molecular level will result in the release or absorption of (in the case of gases a very small amount of) heat.

Okay then: That would imply that they gave a shit before the bombing alarms and rocket attacks (and Palestinian rockets were never strong enough or far-range enough to seriously threaten the existence of Tel Aviv). That is completely untrue, see: the Nakba. See also: the whole settler colonialism project. Apathy to Palestinian suffering is a necessary part of the fabric of Israeli society, because the whole of Israeli society is built on past and present Palestinian suffering.

Fuck you for trying to excuse genocide.

What the fuck was the USSR meant to actually do?

Not add "we get to invade Eastern Europe if we feel like it" as a clause in negotiations with the allies.
