Feb 28, 2025As Palestinians released from #Israeli imprisonment recount torture and other abuse suffered at the hands of their former captors, the Trump administration on Friday approved a new $3 billion weapons package for #Israel.
The new package, reported by Zeteo’s Prem Thakker, includes nearly $2.716 billion worth of bombs and weapons guidance kits, as well as $295 million in bulldozers.
Hooo boy glad we dodged that whole Kamala bullet

Biden admin and his VP Harris, has approved so much arms to {the Zionist project}, that at the near end of his term, sent $8 billion weapon sales to them during the Gazan massacres (Only beaten by his previous August 2024 deal of $20 billion.)
Compared to what, there was an agreement that $3.8 billion annually for 2019 to 2028 would be sent, by Trump’s admin, albeit under peacetime
(This 3 billion deal is tragically typical of him, unless he increases it more and more, if not surpasses Biden’s record, when another war in Gaza breaks out)
For now, the only thing I can say is we should count the amount of time of peace Gaza has. As for the West Bank, truly horrible what they’re doing over there.
Right. As if it was very different. It’s like American presidents can’t really decide on some fundamental things. I wonder if even Bernie Sanders would stop sending weapons to Israel if he was POTUS. Maybe that can’t be changed, like the Cuban situation.
To be perfectly honest, I was genuinely hoping the rhetoric was to a large degree a smokescreen to placate AIPAC. It’s entirely possible I was wrong on that front, but we’ll never know.
No, you were wrong, and we do know.
Harris also supported arming Israels genocide
Kamala dodged the presidency like Neo from the matrix with the amount of bad takes she had.
Shouldn’t you be glad that instead of dems as usual implementing rep policies, this time reps implement dem policy?
