Saudi Arabia is paying for its weapons.

I wouldn't mind arms sales to Israel -- if they paid for it with their own money. But Americans pay for it.

Israel is extremely wealthy. Its supporters always tout Israel's amazingly successful tech and medical industries. But all that's forgotten whenever Israel wants yet another handout.

The Israeli welfare state also provides free health care and college education for its citizens.

Israel can easily afford to pay for its weapons. It might have to divert some money from its generous domestic programs. It might have to raise taxes on its industries and billionaires (of which there are a few).

But why raises taxes on Israelis, when they can instead shift the costs to American taxpayers?

The biden administration already did that with what they abandoned in Afghanistan.

Muzzies have more than enough US weapons and munitions.

Hope he lives long enough to be charged with destroying America
and put in prison. Wish we had names for those behind the curtain
to get the same treatment they have given DT.

He is the enemy within.

And they want to keep the guns out of the hands of law abiding American citizens.

New F-15EXs to Israel has been in the works a long time, at least a year and half. I think delivery begins a couple years from now.

He pulled U.S. forces out of Afghanistan ...

And left $85 Billion dollar's worth of mil equipment and weapons for the Taliban.
Seems like the flood started there.

This is worse than LIV golf!

How dare the US engage in commerce with the country that killed Jamal Khashoggi and chopped him up into tiny bits.

H.R. 1392 to limit the sending of arms to SA over the killing of khashoggi. I guess it did not pay well enough to be a member of the Muslim brotherhood and advocate for the overthrow of the SA government.
Now the Biden is clear of the politics he’s cutting loose all of the
Thknfs his party not let him do like help rearm the saudis who have been fighting the Yemenis and are in a kind of Cold War stand off with Iran.
