US approves $7,4 billion sale of bombs and missiles to Israel

The US State Department announced approval for more than $7,4 billion in arms sales to Israel, as Trump continues the military support for Israel that Biden, who tried to appear less pro-Israel, had fully implemented before him.

Tel Aviv will receive 166 small-diameter bombs, 2800 500-pound bombs, thousands of guidance kits, fuses and other bomb components and support equipment for $6,75 billion. In addition, Israel will receive 3000 missiles Hellfire and related equipment worth $660 million. Deliveries are scheduled to begin this year.

The United States is committed to Israel's security and it is vital to its national interest to provide assistance to Israel.

- the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) said in a statement.

Let us recall that Donald Trump lifted the ban on sending 2000-pound bombs to Israel shortly after taking office. The new decision was made by the American authorities after the visit of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the United States.

Under former President Joe Biden, the US has provided $2023 billion in military aid to Israel since the start of the Gaza conflict in October 17,9.

...so that defenseless Israel would have something to fight off civilian Palestinians with.... I see....

The US State Department announced approval for arms sales to Israel worth more than $7,4 billion.

The news does not indicate that these weapons will be delivered as part of military aid to Israel. They will get everything for free... The State Department will allocate money and buy weapons for Israel with it... In the USSR they said that the USA is Israel's dacha, and not the other way around. Jews in the USA control more than 70% of financial resources and their flows.

[tralflot1832]

It's cheaper than a global resettlement of Palestinians. Trump yesterday, when asked what your plans are with Gaza, replied: We're in no hurry! So it's a false start. Trump is quite the showman.

[Nexcom]

Rather, it has been decided to exterminate as many Palestinians as possible, and the rest will be displaced....
The real American-Jewish genocide of Palestinians...

[tralflot1832]

Dmitry, no one will move the Palestinians, they will be forced to work, not to be rude. This is not our war.

[Nexcom]

The territory will be occupied by Israel after a thorough cleansing of Palestinians - this will happen.

[tralflot1832]

I don't want to argue with you, in the Middle East the donkey with gold wins and it doesn't matter whose.

[dementor873]

No one can compete with the Israeli donkey with its bombs on the BV.

[tralflot1832]

Somehow the Israeli donkey with gold doesn't work very well without bombs. Egypt understood this - and it is possible without bombs and concluded a multi-year contract (this is generally nonsense now) with Israel for the supply of gas to Egypt, in comparison with current prices, gas goes to Egypt for pennies, Europe can't even dream of it. (Gazprom supplies totalitarian gas, and what kind of Israel to Egypt?)

[Nexcom]

What kind of gas does Israel supply?
Of course it's kosher. You ask such things too....

[tralflot1832]

Dmitry of course kosher at a price of 200 - 250 $ per 1000 cubic meters and to push the same Egyptian gas to Europe at 595 $ per 1000 cubic meters (price on TTF on Friday)

Voice of reason!
But if they pay well, then you can sell the Palestinians something "non-lethal", bulletproof vests, medicines, surveillance and communication equipment. Naturally, from what you yourself do not need.
It's nothing personal, just business.

Not everything has been destroyed yet, not everything has been destroyed yet, not everyone has been killed, not everyone has been deprived of shelter, of life!
Scum, as long as America exists, the tears of mothers, children, and fathers will flow, this piece of shit after a puddle brings a lot of grief to the world, devastation, sorrow, sadness, grief, this half-country forgotten by God, why doesn’t our creator wipe this half-state off the face of the earth!

[Revolver]

What does it matter to you? On the contrary, you should be happy, a shell fired into Gaza will never explode in Donbass. And let Zelya whine with an outstretched hand, "Why did they give it to them and not to me? I'm also a Jew, and I need it more!"

[Vladlous]

This is the answer to those who continue to imagine that Trump is a pro-Russian president! Nothing of the sort, in my opinion he is scarier than Biden.

His attachment to Israel gives us a clear understanding of what circles he serves and for what purpose. And these circles are historically focused on the destruction of everything Russian and Slavic. And his help to Israel simply acts as a marker that highlights his true intentions.

And these intentions are such that very soon he will surpass Adolf Hitler, the dictator and executioner raised on Zionist money. And although for now he evokes respect and sometimes admiration from many, often well deserved, the future of his course will be bloody and terrible. This is the reverse side of the liberal vision of the world, only not with hidden violence, but with overt violence.

Trump, by supporting Israel, is telling us all about his desire to build the Fourth Reich all over the world. And if we turn a deaf ear, then one fine day we will allow a repeat of June 22, 1941. And this is unacceptable! Therefore, down with all illusions about the USA, Trump, Israel and Zionism.

He will push through the Arctic, having first struck at us from Scandinavia, the Baltics and the Baltic Sea, and also continuing to covertly support Ukraine. These will be diversionary maneuvers. Like Israel, whose role is reduced to neutralizing, in my opinion, a somewhat cowardly Iran.

I have never seen such naive people here. Name at least one specifically, "who continues to imagine that Trump is a pro-Russian president!", I really want to know.

Jews cannot do without outside help, that's a fact. And how many statements have there been here on VO from commentators that Israel is self-sufficient and produces everything itself. And it will "roll" everyone without any help.))

Probably on credit, which will then be written off free of charge

[Monster_Fat]

"Help"... This means "free, that is, for nothing"... No loans. Sometimes smart capitalists give money "for nothing" in order to spend it in their economy - to support it... Or to provide a geopolitical benefit in the region...
Which in the future will give a good overall benefit and the region's connection to these capitalists, but for this one must have a state-oriented, and not a "parochial" or "grabbing" mind...

The whole point of the military-industrial complex is that it also has a lot of related industries, including science-intensive ones.

[Gregory Charnota]

yes, in all likelihood the Jews will take the gas for themselves for new resorts
in principle, nothing changes in the world, the law of the strong rules in any conflict
the un is an office that should be consigned to the dustbin of history

What should the UN do? Bring in troops that the UN never had? Have you read the procedure for bringing in UN troops? I bet you haven't - otherwise they wouldn't be talking like that.

- $14.3 billion in October 2023
- $3,8 billion in annual tribute that the US pays to Israel every year no matter what
- $26 billion in April 2024
- $20 billion in November 2024 (apparently he hoped that this would help the Democrats in the elections)
- $3,8 billion as an annual tribute for 2024.
Total: $67,9 billion during the conflict.
And that's not counting the customs benefits and encouraged private aid (any American who donates a certain amount to Israel can write it off as a tax deduction).

Supply the Palestinians with shovels and construction equipment so that they can build an oasis in the desert and not mess around. There was no reason to sell their lands to Jewish settlers at the time (between the first and second world wars). Rent and that's it, no property.

They are not interested in this, it's not the money

Of course it's not that kind of money, the villas on the first line to the sea talked about it when they were there.

[Krasnodar]

Money that might interest them:
1. Oil and gas - unrealistic due to the lack of such in the territory of Gaza / West Bank
2. Humanitarian aid - they receive it as refugees, and professional refugees, in the third generation
3. Billions for the fight against Israel - that's the best thing, you can write and give loyal people jobs and villas on the first line and yachts, etc.

yeah, it seems like they just found gas there...
offshore

Reserves of natural gas were found offshore the Gaza Strip in the year 2000, within the framework of licensing to British Gas by the Palestinian National Authority.

So now Israel is making statements so that there would be fewer accusations. Of course, there are fewer there than in Norway, but it is quite profitable. Less than how many billion dollars do you think is not serious?

It's not a fact that there is a billion there.
