The Biden administration is planning to announce military aid for Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza but is concerned that the chaos among House Republicans could hamper approval of more aid, a senior U.S. official told reporters Saturday.
Why it matters: Israel is expected to go on a massive counter-offensive in Gaza that could take several weeks and likely will need additional U.S. military assistance — especially if the war expands to other arenas, such as Lebanon.

1. The US is no longer energy independent and must go to the international marker to buy its physical contacts (barrels of oil). If there is another oil embargo, Americans are SOL.
2. The Strategic Reserve is close to empty.
3. Biden gave billions of dollars to Iran/Hamas/Hezbollah. How weapons were purchased with those dollars and from where (Afghanistan, Ukraine)?
4. How many terrorists have crossed the southern border. This attack on Israel was longtime in planning.
Stockpiles: Established in the 1980s, the War Reserves Stock Allies-Israel program consists of up to $3.4 billion of U.S.-owned and -managed weapons and equipment stored in Israel for use by the U.S. military. The IDF may access these reserves during emergencies, if authorized by the U.S. government.
Makes we wonder if Obama isn't running the administration after all. Remember this?
Obama ‘dumped Netanyahu for private dinner’
The way Netanyahu and Israel were treated by the Obama-Biden administration for 8 years, it makes me wonder why Netanyahu was the first foreign leader to call him to congratulate him on stealing an election.
The U.S. can do two things: 1.) Clear the was for any weapons purchases made by Israel. 2.) Offer moral support.
I strongly suggest that the Biden Administration and the U.S. State Department stays completely away from Israel. Everything they touch turns to chit.
WORRIED-—HELL NO-—THEY set up this scenario
Can’t be too much left in that stockpile for Isreal to use. Also, see dforest post at #57.
chaos like being led by a dementia patient
that kind of chaos?
Won’t be any aid. He’s setting up to blame Republicans. I don’t GAGS. We got this. Northern border’s reinforced. Southern border’s coming back into view.
What about poor Ukraine? Don’t we need to send every Bullet in America to Ukraine and every dime we can scrape together to stop horrible Hitler-Putin? Mrs. Zelenskyy needs a new diamond bikini. Why should she suffer with rhinestones? I bet if it was up to Biden/Obama all that cash would go to Hamas.
Really? Too bad. Conservatives, force the GOPe bunch to capitulate or not one more penny. EITHER, do it right or not one more dime. Absolutely no compromuse, no matter what.
Right. The guy who in 1973 claimed to Meir’s face that Egypt wasn’t going to attack is sooo concerned about helping Israel.
I was referring to this, Sorry, here is a link.

I also notice it is 75 mil not 750 mil.
Also - a lot of Toyota pickup trucks being driven by those Hamas terrorists. How many of those were courtesy of Biden/Obama admin leaving $82 Billion worth of weapons and supplies in Afghanistan?
How our government, our representatives justify giving 1 penny of American taxpayer dollars to anyone, let alone one of the wealthiest nations in the middle-east, can only be explained by the influence special-interest groups have on on our government.

Any excuse
to spread eagle America and Israel at the feet of their enemies
and sell our dying corpse
while picking our pockets
and robbing our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren
at the same time.
