“That son of a bitch, Bibi Netanyahu, he’s a bad guy,” said Biden privately, according to Woodward. “He’s a bad fucking guy!”

Reads like a bloody Onion article.

    You have brought up exactly one concrete claim - that the arms relationship is a “decades-long trade agreement” - and it was embarrassingly wrong. I can see why you find the topic so complicated, you seem to not know the first thing about it.

      The US Israel FTA (Free Trade Agreement) was began in 1985. 1985 to 2024 is how many years exactly?? And the weapons sent is a direct result of the 10 Year Memorandum wish is in addition to the FTA.

      It wouldn’t have happened without it. And it’s pretty safe to assume that canceling one, cancels the other. Which again, illustrate my point- NUANCED and COMPLICATED

      Lastly… The fact that you seem to be incapable of counting excuses you from this discussion.
