Biden administration is sending $1 billion more in weapons, ammo to Israel, congressional aides say
The Biden administration has told key lawmakers it is sending a new package of more than $1 billion in arms and ammunition to Israel, three congressional aides said Tuesday.
It’s the first arms shipment to Israel to be announced by the administration since it put another arms transfer — consisting of 3,500 bombs — on hold this month. The administration has said it paused that earlier transfer to keep Israel from using the bombs in its growing offensive in the crowded southern Gaza city of Rafah.
I had a sickening feeling Trump would win the next election. It seems more likely with news stories like this.
Trump would be 1 million times worse for Palestine. As well as withdrawing support for Ukraine and allowing a full scale land war to spread across Europe.
IF YOU DON’T LIKE WHAT BIDEN IS DOING, IT DOESN’T MEAN VOTE FOR TRUMP
It can get much much worse, let’s not find out
I’m pretty sure everyone agrees that Trump is worse. But with headlines such as these a lot of people will unfortunately vote for Trump over Biden.
And those people are retarded
People say that Trump would be worse: he’d probably send American troops to aid Israel.
To which I ask: what difference does it make if it’s American weapons killing Palestinians vs American soldiers killing them?
Troops on the ground also means troop deaths on the ground. That’s one big difference.
I mean the rest of the world doesnt really care if its american or israeli soldiers dying but the political impact would be different for sure.
Dragging American troops into another war in the middle east is probably one of the few things Trump’s base wouldn’t accept from him
So not even that then.
