“””If the 300,000 rounds the US took from Israeli stockpiles to give to Ukraine””””
The United States took nothing from Israeli stocks.
America has prepositioned weapons stocks around the world including in Israel and it removed some of our own stocks for Ukraine.
America has prepositioned weapons stocks around the world including in Israel and it removed some of our own stocks for Ukraine.
A distinction without a difference.
Complete nonsense
Fueled by an antisemitic fantasy
Seriously? Most ‘Orthodox’ Jews far surpass average incomes. If you mean self-selected Chareidi Jews, half of the Orthodox, even half of them exceed average incomes, and fairly large percentages of all being discussed are comparatively wealthy.
Israel controls electricity, water and points of entry including by air.
You are posting a lot of vague unlikely things tonight.
What report?
“ Hamas isn’t suiciding Gaza on pyre of defiance like people think…”
Wha?
At least, according to the article, it would be the Haredi’s.
Scary, but it’s a wakeup call. Having been close to the process of mfg. 155 rounds in the 1970s, I can tell you that it’s no easy task to ramp up if you’ve haven’t maintained the infrastructure, (steel production, forging systems, machine tools, etc.) Our machine tool industry rotted away in the ‘70s and ‘80s, just for starters. Later, in the “aughts”, the only country that could produce the automotive engine lines I worked on were the Germans and the Japanese, (and the latter were second-rate at best).

Nobody can supply reinforcements or weapons to Gaza at this point. The Israelis hold the Egyptian border, the sea, and the Israeli border. Under current circumstances all civilian shipments, such as will be permitted, are going to be under intense scrutiny. As Israel is mobilizing it will have the personnel to keep Gaza under siege.
I doubt 155mm arty will be of much significance. Nearly all of Gaza is built up of reinforced concrete or at least concrete block. What we are looking at is fodder for 2000lb bombs, not 155mm.
Well…there’s always nuclear.
It’s gonna happen sometime. And that time doesn’t seem far off any longer.
What munitions used in Ukraine are relevant for a defense of Taiwan?
LOL, all the difference in the world, we preposition OUR weapons around the world for us, and your source is claiming that we took Israeli arms from Israel’s weapon stocks.
Conservative orthodox Jews (Hasidics) are also big welfare queens in the US, notably in Rockland County and Brooklyn NY. Almost all the males are devoted to studying the Torah, rather than actually working. In addition to looking ridiculous, they are a complete drag on society.
There is no need for such enormous effort.
Just shut off electricity, water, and food shipments into Gaza.
60 days, and the Palestinians are done. Minimal casualties for the Israeli forces. Mass deaths for the Palestinians.
War is an ugly business.
Your "unlikely" comment was unnecessary.
If China attacked Taiwan tomorrow, what munitions does US have in order to defend Taiwan if everything was sent to the Ukraine?
I believe the West was drained of its ability to defend itself so it can be brought down with hardly a fight.
Hareidi’s what? Hareidi’s is possessive. Chareidi is a Hebrew word, with a ‘ch’ like Scottish LoCH Ness.
100,000 dead to starvation. The international community would never approve that.
“ It’s daylight over target/Gaza now, and the air-delivered munitions have been coming in pretty strong and regular.”

Yep, dawn has arrived in Gaza along with periodic very satisfying BA-DA-BOOMS. Below link is to four live streams from Gaza. Actually the #3 camera is from up the coast in Israel facing down the coast toward Gaza. It would offer the best view in the event of a THERMONUCLEAR explosion over Gaza.
