On his way out the door, Joe Biden is selling Israel $8 billion worth of heavy arms. Not only is it the right thing to do, since Israel is an important ally, it infuriates Democrats. Especially, the radical far-left wing of the party. That’s because they’re rooting for the Palestinians. It’s exactly why Joe waited until it’s too late for them to make a fuss about it. He’s rumored to be wrapped up under a thick blanket waiting for the blizzards to come through. With a big bowl of ice cream in front of him.
Biden arms Israel
Since Joe Biden still has a few things he can do with his magic pen, he sold off some of our spare bombs and missiles to Israel. While Republicans are against him donating military assets to Ukraine, it’s the Democrats who are against him selling arms to Israel.
They’ve been programmed to support the Palestinian terrorists, who are totally backed by Iran. Has anyone actually seen the Ayatollah since Trump was elected?
Biden notified Congress of the sale to help their efforts in Gaza. Antony Blinken at the State Department sent a memo about it off to the the foreign affairs committees of both the House and Senate on Friday.
Blinky notes that we’re shipping over “500-pound warheads, precision-guided munitions, artillery shells, missiles for jets and attack helicopters, and bomb fuses, along with air-to-air missiles to intercept projectiles.” That should level a hospital or two.
Some of the items are currently in stock and ready for instant delivery. Not all of them though. “The majority is expected to be delivered to Israel over a longer period.” The Pentagon isn’t telling the public that the delay is because the parts are on back order and they’re coming from China.
Joe Biden is just counting the days until he can turn the White House keys back over to Donald Trump. He’ll sign anything they stick in front of him but isn’t returning any calls from Hunter. He’s still fuming about those photos the National Archives released over Christmas.
Only the latest
This isn’t the first time Joe Biden inked an arms deal with the Israelis. Congress approved $20 billion back in August to ship over jets, military vehicles, bombs and missiles. In November, the administration approved a quick $680 million transfer of arms “including small-diameter bombs and precision-guidance kits.”
They’ve been using a lot of ammo but the war in Gaza is wrapping up. Hezbollah hasn’t been a problem since the Ayatollah allegedly had a heart attack in November. Only the Houthis continue causing trouble against Israel and they’ve always been loose cannons.
Last year, bowing to political pressure from the far-left side of his own party, Biden “briefly paused the supply.” When a single shipment of 2,000-pound bombs didn’t arrive on schedule, Benjamin Netanyahu came unglued.
As the press like to say, the Israeli Prime Minister “publicly blasted him.” Joe didn’t like being wedged between a rock and a hard place.
All along, Joe has made a point of emphasizing the U.S. commitment to our close ally. He can’t deny they have the right to defend themselves. At the same time, he takes a lot of heat from progressives “over the killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza.” Democrats can’t seem to understand that there’s a reason for that.
Joe Biden knows but wasn’t about to tell them. The civilians are being used as human shields and they’re doing it voluntarily. All the military assets are underneath and inside all the hospitals, schools and day care centers. Everybody knows that but Democrats.
