    Biden instantly sending 8 Billion dollars in weapons really says it all. The US is planning to let Netanyahu bomb everything he wants. When they strike back in kind the US will use it as a pretense send in troops to start a war with Iran.

    A smart move by Netanyahu. He knows he needs to get rid of Iran or they will outpace Israel. Now that Israel fully controls America this is the time to start their war with Iran with impunity.

    The companies making military weapons and gear for Israel can be found here according to AFSC.

    The US has committed grants to Israel to buy weapons through 2028. It’s benefiting the above corporations. While not all US based, it still is just another example of our corporate overlords fiucking the world over for profits).

      Is there somewhere they are separated by country? Would be helpful to people who want to know what they should demonstrate against in their country.

      And why not? He has virtually unlimited U.S. weapons as well as bi-partisan support from U.S. politicians. It’s as though we’re just setting our attack dog loose on everyone.

      It’s fucking astonishing that we have any relationship with Israel at all these days. The U.S. gets absolutely nothing out of this one-sided relationship.

      Israel offers us:

      -No unique strategic military position (we have that area covered already).

      -No high-value industrial benefits (no natural resources or unique trade).

      -No military arsenal or manpower support (their arsenal comes from us and their personnel is quite limited).

      It’s time to let them make friends with their neighbors on their own. They don’t need us to do that and we sure as fuck don’t need them.

        Main thing the US gets from Israel is Market Capital Export.

        Israel accounts for what, like 30-40% of all recent American acquired startups?

        The US is a parent sitting and watching its problem child beat the shit out of the other children in the playpark. Other concerned parents keep asking the US to do something, to which they shrug and say “kids will be kids, what can you do” while handing their child a knuckleduster.
