It’s strange that we can’t sell fuel without going to the ( dysfunctional corrupt commies in) congress. Fuels sell quite freely all around the world. What’s the deal with congress getting involved? Do we need congress when we sell food, medicines, cars, or injun beads? Just curious. I’d hate to have to rely on the evil likes of pelousy and her cabal for anything we needed in life
That’s almost four million tons.

That was my first thought. Buying stuff with money from American’s pockets. Funny how Americans get no say in it.
What do you mean?
No kidding. :)
I would suggest that you look up “foreign military sales” to see how it works and who really pays.

Been there, done that. First day there a PLO bomb factory blowed up real good. It was a little more than a mile from my residence. I had a year of that.
That’s just Isreal looking out for Isreal. Anyone who gets in their way is out of luck, remember the USS Liberty?
Well, unlike the do-nothing French, I am quite happy when the Israelis take out Persian weapons of mass destruction research and production facilities.
I’d like to see a lot more of them fighting than the USA.
I think we get a lot of value from them, and need to use them more.
Fill ‘er up!
Sorry Russia, Saudis...
Nothing in that article suggests what you imply but thank you for providing links. I will check them out.
Syria’s geographical footprint is about to be reduced.
The Iranians in Syria are about to feel the hand of Yahweh.
Yeah, we’re buying cheap.
Who does Trump need approval from?
That's a lot by most measures.
I’m sure Liberty woman knows about the Liberty.
I have always supported Israel but if I had been president when they attacked the Liberty, there would have been real serious consequences.
In other words, we give Israel "store credit" and they use it to buy American jets, helicopters, tanks, missiles, and other weapons.
Apparently this year they want to use some of the credits to buy diesel and jet fuel for their military.
