The United States has quietly approved and delivered more than 100 separate foreign military sales to Israel since the Gaza war began Oct. 7, amounting to thousands of precision-guided munitions, small-diameter bombs, bunker busters, small arms and other lethal aid, U.S. officials told members of Congress in a recent classified briefing.
Only two approved foreign military sales to Israel have been made public since the start of conflict: $106 million worth of tank ammunition and $147.5 million of components needed to make 155 mm shells. Those sales invited public scrutiny because the Biden administration bypassed Congress to approve the packages by invoking an emergency authority.
But in the case of the 100 other transactions, known in government-speak as Foreign Military Sales or FMS, the weapons transfers were processed without any public debate because each fell under a specific dollar amount that requires the executive branch to individually notify Congress,** **according to U.S. officials and lawmakers who, like others, spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive military matter.
Nearly every comment you have posted is critical of Biden and Biden only. You’ve said nothing about Trump or the right wing agenda, even though they are provenly worse and intend to do even more damage to Palestine.
As others have pointed out- you show upon posts about Biden to slander ONLY. There are tons of posts about Trump and his administration, yet you and those like you are strangely silent about.
You share quotes of people suggesting they will vote for Trump and their reasoning.
You claim to be voting third party- and are fully aware that this is a throwaway vote that will ultimately support Trump in November.
You don’t HAVE to openly say anything in support of him for everyone here to know why you and those like you are here.
It’s almost as if it’s a congressional decision and not entirely his own.
Crazy, right?
You must not be paying attention. Biden has been exploiting loopholes to bypass Congress to send weapons to Israel since Oct. 7:
These one issue people block that process from their minds, it doesn’t matter to them.
Or they’re not even American anyways and have no idea.
I’ve spoken to MANY that aren’t in America.
I gather you haven’t been paying attention either: https://lemmy.today/comment/8531642

Your comment history says otherwise.
Link to a single comment then. You won’t because it doesn’t exist.

Is this enough?
That’s a lot of words to conceed that I’ve never endorsed Trump.
I wish I could say I’m sorry that you’re mad that I’m mad at Biden for the gencide, but the truth is I just don’t care.
I’ve said on here that I liked Biden before he turned genocidal.
no. show the body.
You have comments endorsing Trump, dude. Everyone can see who you are.
