Biden administration is sending $1 billion more in weapons, ammo to Israel, congressional aides say

The Biden administration has told key lawmakers it is sending a new package of more than $1 billion in arms and ammunition to Israel, three congressional aides said Tuesday.

It’s the first arms shipment to Israel to be announced by the administration since it put another arms transfer — consisting of 3,500 bombs — on hold this month. The administration has said it paused that earlier transfer to keep Israel from using the bombs in its growing offensive in the crowded southern Gaza city of Rafah.

    Trump would be 1 million times worse for Palestine. As well as withdrawing support for Ukraine and allowing a full scale land war to spread across Europe.

    IF YOU DON’T LIKE WHAT BIDEN IS DOING, IT DOESN’T MEAN VOTE FOR TRUMP

    It can get much much worse, let’s not find out

      I’m pretty sure everyone agrees that Trump is worse. But with headlines such as these a lot of people will unfortunately vote for Trump over Biden.
