Have they already gone through the billions in weapons we’ve already given them?
Billions don’t go through as many hospitals as they used to.
Yeah, I didn’t read all 69 pages of the document. After 30 pages, I got RFP’d out and stopped.
There’s nowhere in this document that supports OP’s claim in the headline. If someone wants to refute my claim here, I’d be willing to address that with a citation in the document. But other than that, this entire post should be removed because it’s based on a horseshit claim.
A post like this is why downvotes are needed.
This request would modify requirements that apply to certain defense articles that the Department of Defense (DOD) transfers to Israel. Section 12001 of the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2005 (Public Law 108-287), as amended (section 12001), currently allows the DOD to transfer specified categories of defense articles to Israel in exchange for certain concessions from Israel, subject to multiple restrictions—including that the articles are obsolete or surplus to DOD. It further requires the President to notify the Congress at least 30 days prior to such transfer. This request would modify section 12001 to: allow for the transfer of all categories of defense articles; remove the requirement that these articles be obsolete or surplus to DOD; allow DOD greater flexibility in determining the value of the concessions provided in exchange for the transfers; and provide for the possibility of shortening the 30-day prior notice period in extraordinary circumstances.
Jesus fucking Christ
But Ukraine can’t even get enough AGTMs and shells. God forbid mentioning atacms, almost two fucking years!
I can’t believe that Netanjahu is more trustworthy than Zaluzhny.

Can you touch on this a little further please? I’m not sure I follow.
There was a lot of back and forth over the last two years whether UAF can be trusted. Either about applying the weapons as agreed (ie not using atacms against muscovite mainland), or with regards to safety of the provided assets (keeping weapons in Ukraine and not selling it further to baddies). Like, there’s a severe shortage of atgms, and as of lately majority of russian hardware is hit either with artillery or with FPV drones, or direct hit weapons such as RPGs.
At the same time Netanjahu is a very risky political actor who has proven his, um, tendency to manipulate the political spectrum, who’s government absolutely fucked up the insurrection, and who governs a closest thing to an apartheid system since SA. Ffs his minister of internal security is so far right, he was expelled from IDF! And these people are promised unconstrained access to weapons.
This makes me sad.
all US puppets suffer the same fate in the end
Before we proceed to discuss this valuable political point, what is your opinion on JWBush’s 1990 speech in Verkhovna Rada? Or you are of that bunch who thought oatmeal cookies on Maidan in 2014 were how these ammies bought Ukraine’s independence?
I’m of the opinion that US wanted political capture of as much of former USSR as it could get ever since USSR dissolved, and has succeeded in creating vassal states out of most former Soviet republics. Ukraine tried to maintain its neutrality between the west and Russia and largely succeeded until US ran a violent coup in 2014, at which point the legitimate elected government was overthrown.
You know nothing about Ukraine.
Both my parents were born in Ukraine, but do tell me more.

With what exactly, you being a genocidal sack of shit?
I can’t imagine Hamas being the sole reason behind this decision. Of course at face value it is but feels like they are taking this opportunity to do this for some other reason.
Terrible nonetheless but worried about what else is to happen due to this.
Likely as a condition of the pause and hostage exchange.
There’s nothing genocide Joe loves more than bombing brown people. Reminder that this is the same piece of human garbage that voted for the invasion of Iraq in which US regime massacred over a million people.
I get the feeling that Israelis have something on joe or his son
More likely he’s getting a cut from the billions that defense contractors are making by selling arms to Israel.
Yes, you’re worried about a guy greasing his pockets who rode a train to work for 20 years, and not the constant grifter who sends out monthly emails begging for money for his legal fees for lawyers he refuses to pay. This is a completely reasonable take.
Who? I have no idea what you’re on about…

Israel has something on every Western leader… the fact they’re the front line of defense against jihadism.
There’s a reason why the west has lined up behind the only democracy in the region.
Israel is not a democracy if they have different laws for different classes of citizens.
They are a far right fanatical zionist theocracy
