What kind of defective thinking is this? On the one hand the US is ending powerful bombs to kill Palestinians, while on the other hand they pretend to send aid for them. This is unbelievable! Take them away in a straight jacket, please.
"US to send weapons to Israel amid invasion threat in Gaza’s Rafah: Report"
"Planned delivery of bombs and other munitions comes as President Biden pushes for truce in Israel’s war on Gaza". Emphasis added.
REALLY?
"Smoke billows over Khan Younis following an Israeli bombardment in the
southern Gaza Strip, on February 15, 2024 [Said Khatib/AFP]"
"The United States is preparing to send more bombs and other weapons to Israel even as it pushes for a ceasefire in the war on Gaza and has said it opposes Tel Aviv’s plans for a ground invasion in southern Rafah where more than half the enclave’s displaced population is trapped."
"The proposed arms delivery includes about a thousand each of MK-82 500-pound (227kg) bombs and KMU-572 Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAMs) that turn unguided munitions into precision-guided bombs, The Wall Street Journal reported on Friday, citing unnamed US officials."
"The US is further considering sending FMU-139 bomb fuses, with the total shipment estimated to be worth tens of millions of dollars, which will be paid from US military aid to Israel."
"The report cited an assessment of the proposed arms transfer drafted by the US embassy in Jerusalem as saying the Israeli government has requested “rapid acquisition of these items for the defence of Israel against continued and emerging regional threats”.
"The assessment also dismisses potential human rights concerns, saying “Israel takes effective action to prevent gross violations of human rights and to hold security forces responsible that violate those rights”."
"The administration of US President Joe Biden has so far twice bypassed Congress to urgently send bombs and other munitions to Israel amid the war that has killed more than 28,000 Palestinians, mostly children and women, and left tens of thousands more injured or missing."
"According to the WSJ, the US has provided roughly 21,000 precision-guided munitions to Israel since the start of the war last October. It said the remaining weapons are enough to sustain 19 weeks of bombing Gaza, but that would shrink to days if Israel also launches a full assault on Lebanon, where it has been engaged in border fighting with Hezbollah."
All one can say, NICE GOING USA!
