I thought they were running out of bombs for their own “war”?
You don’t need guidance systems when you’re dropping munitions indiscriminately on women and children.
TBF when the Americans use guided munitions, they tend to drop them on an awful lot of innocents.
Can’t we just fucking send them trump? Fuck APAIC and fuck Israel. Nutsacks.
I can’t imagine how it must feel to be a Palestinian-American refugee in the US.
They’re literally funding the genocide of their own family by paying taxes (as are the rest of US)
This is assuming they’re not already all rounded up by ICE.
Israel was founded by USA and UK after WW2 for a reason.
Since founding, the USA has always funded their military. Not only did you buy the bombs, tanks, and so on, your parents did too, and your grandparents, and your great grandparents (if you are American, anyway). There’s a reason that every President I know of has flown out to Israel and visited the Prayer Wall and worn the little hat. It’s considered vital to our strategic interests in the area (that’s not my assessment).
… and not only Israel! If memory serves, Saudi Arabia and Egypt have also received a lot of military aid.
… and money! So much money is funneled to ME, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Iraq, and more.
There are few things in life that you can count on, and that’s death, taxes, and US military aid to Israel.
This is one thing that bOtH pArTiEs agree on, there’s no “anti-Israel” voting option.
You pay for their bombs. The money they save allows them to have socialized healthcare.
You bust your ass to keep your family with healthcare … and your government helps another country provide THEIR citizens healthcare.
Let that shit sink in.
Yep. This is the argument to make to Republicans. We pay for socialized healthcare for Israel. Ask them to explain why we can justify that while also making cuts to other international healthcare initiatives and denying healthcare to Americans.
nooo my $5000!
trump doesn’t have any money. his government is $40T in debt.
It’s just imaginary numbers. They can print some paper or add some numbers on a computer if the extremely privileged are at all threatened.
You realize that that debt is owned by rich people including him, right?
He has loads of money, and the taxpayers are giving it to him and his family long after he dies.
I doubt Trump personally holds any significant amount of bonds
Oh, so THAT’S where our DOGE checks are going!
If it makes you feel any better, I hear they’re putting Charlie Kirks face on all the warheads.
They got his neck wrong.
I’ve always appreciated RS for providing actual leftist reporting AKA, truthful coverage of politics.
That’s a lot of food stamps to cut so bibi the nazi can keep his genocide running.
Food stamps for the needy? Bad!
Bomb stamps for a genocidal regime? Good?
If welfare queens exist, then Israel is the ultimate welfare queen. Just sucking up money and never becoming a productive member of the world.
I’d argue they’re welfare fraudsters rather than welfare queens. They’ve got tons of money, most of the tech industry is connected to Israeli engineering. They’re just also constantly getting even more money so they don’t need to spend as much of their own money. Always best to waste someone else’s money.
I’d argue they’re welfare fraudsters rather than welfare queens.
“Welfare fraudster” is exactly what “welfare queen” means, and is why the term is so offensive.
It’s not even money they are cutting from social programs, it’s all borrowed. The ruling class are going for broke, we will be at 50 trillion debt by 2028 easy. I bet even more, all they need is a national emergency.
It’s time for the Final Solution. Then Trump and Kushner can finally develop the Jewish Dubai out of the ruins. That’s what he’s getting in exchange for full collaboration.
Rollingstone doing the Lord’s work with this one.
So Israel’s genocidal rampage is more important than winning in Iran, and all the US military over there are sacrificing their lives for no (useful) reason. I don’t get why the right-wingers aren’t more incensed over this crap.
winning in Iran,
lol. Even if USA “wins”, the planet loses as usual. But realistically there’s no end to this imperial terror attack. It’s been happening for centuries.
It’s a death cult.
because christian fascism
It’s the mental illness epidemic of fascism
Why not both? Is there even a difference?
Once someone accepts hatred into their heart, they’re easy to control, and most of these people have had 20 years of Islamophobia mainlined 24/7.
They don’t see humans anymore because their brain shuts off at “Muslim”.
And it’s the exact same playbook used by every fascist. Give them someone to hate, and they’ll let you do basically anything as long as you actively hurt the people you told them to hate.
So Israel’s genocidal rampage is more important than winning in Iran
No, duh! They already won in Iran. Haven’t you heard Dear Leader? Iran’s utterly destroyed and the Strait is open! If you have high gas prices is because that damned Zelensky is bombing poor Russia’s oil infrastructure!
Cult + they will never be informed of this on fox and/or be told this is a great thing for national security
Your Medicaid and SNAP benefits hard at work!
I’m sending my health care! Hopefully I can die quickly and quietly to push that line just a bit higher for corporate overlords. Hail corporate!
I thought we needed those bombs? Didn’t Biden cause the problem by giving away all our precious bombs to Ukraine, not TACO with his Iran war? So I guess the shortage must be over if we have enough to give to Israel. Such a relief to know we are safe again.
Different bombs. These are dumb bombs, US can’t get close enough to Iran to use these. They tried already and lost aircraft. So they have to use guided bombs and missiles.
Israels genocide is uncontested, so they have no issues dropping dumb bombs.
It was my understanding most of it was WWII surplus.
WWII surplus would have been used in Korea or the Vietnam war I would assume
The WWII surplus basically doesn’t exist outside museums. The vast majority would have been used (especially in training) or updated. Even just chemical instability and environmental degradation would have made anything too dangerous to really leave in an arsenal.
Fuck isreal. It should be wiped off the map.
That would mean killing Palestinians, which is what they’re already doing.
