Why is Israel handing out guns?? Because they banned them from private possession in the first place!
Israel does NOT recognize a right to keep and bear arms.
Obviously we aren’t learning the lesson, we keep repeating the same mistakes.
Full auto are ammo eaters. The cost of operating a full auto is 5x that of semi when looking at ammo cost.
Israel was founded by secular Jews as a socialist state.
They have been moving towards capitalism.
The percentage of religious Jews has been increasing.
Oh, I almost forgot.....snx. Sen McConnell disclosed that the endless US-financed war in Ukraine
has a “higher purpose”......its a “jobs program” for the “military industrial complex”......to ‘reindustrialize’ the arms industry,
REALITY CHECK
About $113 billion tax dollars was authorized in 2022 for Ukraine, according to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. Most of it–about $67.1 billion–was defense-related. The other $46 billion included:
<><>$26.9 billion for UKRANIAN economic support in UKRAINE;
<><>$7.9 billion for international disaster assistance for UKRAINE;
<><>$6.6 billion in assistance for refugees in UKRAINE;
<><>$1.5 billion for assistance for Europe, Eurasia and Central Asia;
<><>plus $3.1 billion for other UKRANIAN non-defense spending in UKRAINE.
US tax dollars to UKRAINE helped Ukraine
<><>pay the salaries of 618,000 UKRAINE educators, 517,000 UKRAINE health workers,
<><>and 56,500 UKRAINE first responders
<><>helped sustain critical UKRAINE healthcare services,
<><>helped meet UKRAINE pension responsibilities for 9.8 million UKRAINIANS,
<><>assisted 1.3 million internally displaced persons in UKRAINE,
<><>provided housing assistance to 4.1 million UKRAINIANS in UKRAINE,
<><>provided social assistance to 240,000 low-income UKRANIAN families in UKRAINE,
<><>helped subsidize 480,000 UKRANIANS with disabilities in UKRAINE,
<><>bought supplies for UKRANIAN farmers in UKRAINE,
<><>financed finding markets for UKRANIAN small businesses in UKRAINE.
It is wise not to think of the Ukraine funds as expense but investment.
There are great future dividends to be paid by having a crippled and destitute Russia.
Let me jot that down, so I wont forget.

There is nothing like getting a thousand or two neighbors shot, raped, and beheaded to rethink that guns are not so bad after all.
It allows collectors to buy rare and valuable guns for a bargain price and saves them from the torch. And if you are smart, you can unload some really POS and make money.
I was very surprised to learn that Israel had tight control until now.
Interesting...
3% is the number batted around the active Armed Civilians that fought
For American Independence from Britain.

Go figure 🤔
Great writing Dean....THANKS.
The man with the Glock going Rambo is the first I’d heard That!
The terrorists are Inept Cowards in the face of one protecting his Home.

That 3% number during the revolution means approximately 97% of armed civilians did not fight for American independence. Further, your initial posts would (hypothetically) exclude Kibbutz members from the 97% because being armed would have been anathema.
Indeed, it is those armed, trained and willing few who make all of the difference. The 97% plus on the sidelines are not relevant, and that would certainly include communist Kibbutz members.
If I have misunderstood please let me know.
Freegards, 70x7
Hindsight, as one has recently learned, but Israel sold off a generation of Mauser rifles, and probably other "obsolete" weapons that could have been given (ye$, given) to their general public, for what is now obviously good reason.
But for the stupidity of politicians.
The local militia use 3% as a rally cry.
The stone cold Fighters.
