The Telegraph ^

Posted on 01/27/2025 11:47:59 AM PST by USA-FRANCE

Israel reportedly met with Ukrainian diplomats on Tuesday to discuss a weapons transfer. Since then, US military cargo planes have been tracked flying from Israel to an airbase in eastern Poland. “There are signs that Israel has begun supplying Ukraine with Soviet and Russian-made weapons,” Two Majors, a pro-Russia military blog on the Telegram social messaging site, told its 1.2 million subscribers on Sunday.

While Israel has previously been cautious to OPENLY align militarly with Ukraine against Russia (it was forced to have a neutral stance due to its strategic interests in Syria) - it's now free to proactively help Ukraine. Russia's influence in the region is dead.

Israel sending weapons to Nazis in Ukraine? Seriously?

I guess Israel really doesn’t need the billions in US aid after all.

If this really occurred, it happened under the Biden/Blinken regime, with their approval.

As part of the “war at all costs in Ukraine” brigade, we know you want this to continue - but will Trump oblige?

Good idea. Rooski skunks have been arming Jihadists for years. Indirectly through Iran.

Russia has turned its de facto alliance with Iran into a de jure mutual assistance treaty, so they have managed to get booted out of Syria and ticked off the preeminent regional power.

Putin is truly the master strategist.

If true.

If true, I hope Trump will tell Netanyahu that this is not constructive to a cease-fire.

Actually quite logical

Russia is also an enemy of Israel - they back Iran, hezbollah and Hamas

And since Israel doesn’t need the Russian stuff, might as well help Ukraine AND defeat one of Israel’s enemies

The problem is none of those weapons will make Ukraine win so what at the end of a war ship a bunch a weapons to make a new enemy for Israel?

This materiel is what Israel captured in Lebanon. It is all Soviet/Russian/Iranian stuff which is completely incompatible with Israel’s weapons systems. Over in Eastern Europe, it is much more likely to be useful for use with the Ukrainian equipment.

“Israel sending weapons to Nazis in Ukraine? Seriously?”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Well, President Zelensky of Ukraine is Jewish, and thus unsurprisingly anti-nazi.
Members of his family were assassinated by the Nazis during WWII.
There are no nazi parties represented in the Ukrainian parliament.

Shared historical ties:
Ukraine is home to a significant Jewish heritage and population. Before World War II, Ukraine had one of the largest Jewish communities in Europe. Many Israelis trace their ancestry to Ukraine. This shared history fosters cultural and emotional connections.
Since Zelensky is Jewish, it has been a point of symbolic connection between the two nations.

Trade and economic relations:
Ukraine and Israel signed a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) in 2021, strengthening economic ties in sectors like agriculture, technology, and pharmaceuticals.
Israel imports agricultural products from Ukraine, such as grains and sunflower oil.

Israel has supplied humanitarian aid, including medical supplies, field hospitals, and assistance to Ukrainian refugees. And now military help is coming.

Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have expressed concern about the war and its impact on Ukrainian civilians.

If Israel really wanted to build some goodwill in the world, including with the Islamic world, it would send those weapons to the pro-democracy forces in Burma. The rockets for example would be invaluable against the military airfields that are enabling the remaining garrisons to hold out against PDF's and tribal armies besieging them.

Supporting the Burmese people and ethnic groups like the Muslim Rohingya against a brutal and illegitimate military dictatorship would do far more for Israel than supporting an elitist and corrupt NATO autocracy.

Seriously?
I guess Israel really doesn’t need the billions in US aid after all."
