The Biden administration last week put a hold on a shipment of U.S.-made ammunition to Israel, two Israeli officials told Axios.
Why it matters: It is the first time since the Oct. 7 attack that the U.S. has stopped a weapons shipment intended for the Israeli military. The incident raised serious concerns inside the Israeli government and sent officials scrambling to understand why the shipment was held, Israeli officials said.
President Biden is facing sharp criticism among Americans who oppose his support of Israel. The administration in February asked Israel to provide assurances that U.S.-made weapons were being used by Israel Defense Forces in Gaza in accordance with international law. Israel provided a signed letter of assurances in March.
Tell that to a homosexual in Russia or a pregnant woman in Alabama. Democrats might listen. I wouldn’t hold my breath with a Republican in office.
Exactly. Imagine if it wasn’t just Trump but Mike Pompeo that piece of utter dog shit instead of Blinken. They’d be cheering on the bombings faster than Dick Cheney could say WMD while they just laughed at the protesters.
Worth noting: I was describing Biden as a conservative. The GOP is only conservative in the sense that, whether they realize it or not, they want to conserve the monarchy. Their platform is more radical than your local anarchist collective.
Biden has implemented and improved way too many social programs and wealth taxes to be considered anything like a conservative.
