Israel has asked the United States for $10 billion in emergency military aid, The New York Times reports, citing three officials familiar with the request.

The aid package is currently being put together by Congress in coordination with the White House and will also include funds for Ukraine, Taiwan and the US-Mexico border, according to NYT.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said during a visit to Tel Aviv on Sunday that US lawmakers have discussed providing Israel with replacement ammunition for the Iron Dome missile defense system, precision-guided bombs, JDAM kits to turn standard bombs into precision munitions and 155-millimeter ammunition.

Okay, $1 for Israel is $1 less for Ukraine; also give matching $1 for US border security (construction NOT aid to illegals).

Hey don’t be shocked or surprised y ANY of this. A long time ago some politicians decided that the USA would be the world police and this garbage is a direct result of that decision. It’s too late to reverse course, we have made far too many enemies who have finally decided they can bleed us financially dry and we’ll topple due to circumstances of our own making.

Rumors describe Jim Jordan promised GOP holdouts that Israel funding would be in addition to more Ukraine funding. We’ll know soon enough.

Israel is our ally and this war is no walk in the park. So Trump was supposed to be a maniac and start all kinds of wars, and there were none, and Brandon is a genteel demented grandpa who will bring everyone together. Hmmm

Weaponry left behind in Afghanistan probably sold to Iran, billions given to Iran for “humanitarian” aid used to murder Israelis, untold billions given to Ukraine. Now billions more to Israel.

THIS IS JOE BIDEN, the great statesman’s FOREIGN POLIY……create wars and starve Americans.

Israel worked with Al Qaeda to kill every Christian in Syria. They are facilitating a genocide in Armenia, to finish off that last Christian country in the region.

Whose ally?
