    I know this because the US spends 38% of the world’s total military spending, and that includes manufacturing. We spend more than the other top ten countries combined on our military capacity! We’re number one, no one else spends this much, which tells me that no one else could match the US’s ability to arm Israel.

    Who else could spend as much as the US does on arming Israel? And furthermore, who would even want to?

        You asked “You know this how?” Here:

        I feel like I did a pretty good job explaining how I know that no one could take the US’s place by pointing out that the US is the biggest spender on the military in the entire world, and by a huge margin. If that’s not enough, how about this?

        I think it’s pretty obvious that the rest of the world would struggle to export arms at the same rate as the US.

            They don’t understand what kind of arms the US exports, or how much of the US military budget is variations on ‘personnel expenses’. Unsurprising.

              I’m 99% sure it’s a bot. I keep fucking with it. In another comment, it said I was blocked but yet keeps coming back, so clearly not blocked.
