    I thought it was the plucky little country that did everything on their own against impossible odds, not a country that gets owned by people with industrial fans and AKs, then goes crying to Daddy to commit genocide.

    What a load of bs. Israel is the 51st American state. Not even Puerto Rico gets this level of help. I wonder why.

      Hawaii doesn’t even get this level of help, and they’re actually an [occupied] state already. Maybe they should instigate a war against a pre-approved American enemy.

    Is US equipment really what you want for a war in the middle east? It doesn’t necessarily have the best track record when used against resistance groups with handmade ordnance and AK-47s.

      Yeah but you know how it goes, a shit tank is better than no tank, especially when they don’t have to pay for it later unlike Ukraine.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The Israeli Ministry of Defense confirmed that a 45th cargo plane had arrived in Israel on social media as armaments and military vehicles continue to pour into the country.

    A post on X, formerly known as Twitter, showed a video and images of the cargo, which arrived in Israel on Friday.

    The shipment delivered “around 1,000 tons of armaments” — including military supplies, medical equipment, and military ambulances — to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) as it prepares for its ground offensive in Gaza following the Hamas militant group’s attacks on October 7.

    Another cargo plane carrying a shipment of armored vehicles for the IDF, sent by the US, arrived on Thursday.

    On Thursday, US President Joe Biden said he would ask for billions of dollars in wartime aid for Ukraine and Israel.

    In a speech at the White House, he said Hamas and Russia both wanted to “annihilate a neighbouring democracy.”
