The White House is set to approve an $18 billion arms sale to Israel including several dozen F-15 fighter planes. It would be the biggest arms sale by Washington to Tel Aviv since the start of Israel’s war against Hamas on October 7. The sale has been under consideration since the United States received a formal request in January 2023.

Speeding up the delivery was among the main requests from Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant when he visited Washington last week. Gallant held talks with U.S. officials including Biden’s National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan and Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin. The F-15s need to be built and would not arrive in Israel for several years. Israel wants to increase its air power not just to fight Hamas but to deter the threat from Iran and its Lebanese proxy Hezbollah.

The military package includes a large number of F-15 aircraft, aircraft munitions and support services, training, maintenance, and many years of contractor support during the lifecycle of the aircraft, which could be up to two decades. CNN reported that the agreement may include up to 50 F-15s.

Zelensky’s a pro at manipulating public opinion to get his greedy hands on our tax dollars.

CASE IN POINT

President Trump mentioned the possibility of turning tax dollar billions for Ukraine into a “loan. “

Rotflol......Zelensky knows that routine. Its already been tried.

Few years back, billions more of our tax dollars to Israel were handed out———designated a “loan.”

But Israel got its lobbies to manhandle Congress.

The battered, bruised Congress sap-happily passed a law turning the “loan” into a “gift.”
