America owes Israel all the interceptor missiles they need. And of course for free! Israel is an independent country.... Which is entitled to make their own decisions on the United States is dime! They can attack what they want when they want where they want and the US has to pony up the ammo 50,000 tons and counting
ReplyDeleteAmerica doesn't owe Israel anything. Let Israel fight its own wars. Israel could take out Gaza and kill all 2.1 million Palestinians, and they would be just in doing so, since that is the only weapons they have in house. But the US wants Israel to use only precision weapons to prevent civilians deaths. In that case, the US will need to supply Israel with those precision weapons.
DeleteIts up to the US - provide Israel with precision weapons, or Israel will do it with their own weapons and many civilians will be unfortunately killed as well.
Many in the current Hussain-obiden administration hate Jees so much and want all ... Hashem will continue to protect us. But that's why they are doing everything to defend those trying to destroy.
