    Its weird because he acts helpless when literally, Israel could not have/ can not do what they continue to do with out the US munitions to do so.

    Like he really doesn’t give a fuck that he’s alienated the upper Midwest and literally any one under 30 over this issue.

      While I’m with you on not sending these fuckers any weapons, they do not at all need ours. They have an extremely well established military.

        They don’t though. They’ve got a healthy defense industry that exports weapons, but they still rely on the US for many of these specific weapons. They could make replacements for these weapons, sometime in the future, but they don’t have domestic production going. Why would they, when they have all these free coupons for American weaponry?

            Still do. Aid bills regularly include billions for the zionist colony on stolen Palestinian land, mostly to be used to purchase American weapons systems. So we give them money that they mostly use to enrich US arms manufacturers who donate to domestic political campaigns and call that foreign aid. This has been going on for decades. It’s not a new thing but something so regular it doesn’t even get mentioned most years.
