What’s in the US’s latest arms package to Israel?

The packages includes:

1,800 MK84 2,000-pound (925kg) bombs
500 MK82 500-pound (227kg) bombs
25 F-35A fighter jets and engines

The 2,000-pound bombs, which can inflict damage to people up to 300 metres (1,000 feet) away, have been linked to previous mass-casualty events throughout Israel’s military campaign in Gaza.

claralistensprechen3rd,

@appassionato That ain't even the half of it, either. This particular shipment was large enough to require informing Congress about, but I understand there have been smaller shipments of arms prior to this that were small enough to escape the requirement to notify Congress or anybody.

@appassionato @palestine These are needed by Ukraine. Why are they being given to genociders?

@appassionato @palestine holy shitballs, 25 F35s! And here they are hemming and hawing about letting Ukraine use a couple of F16s. Assholes.

@appassionato @palestine for clarification I don’t think Israel should be given any more weapons, let alone F35s.

@doc @appassionato @palestine why do the need f35s? Wtf is really going on?

@Scmurcott @appassionato @palestine right? It’s complete overkill. It’s not like they are going to fight in high-speed, stealthy air-to-air combat conditions against a starving Palestinian population just trying to f-ing survive the genocide in the leftover ruins.

Ukraine, on the other hand, is fighting an actually justified battle against high-tech Russian jets and equipment.

Biden is a disgusting supporter. Trump may be ten times worse in all aspects but that doesn't exonerate Biden for one second.
