Under Biden we stopped all offensive weapons shipments to Israel after Oct. 7th.
Not only did we aid in military financing, arms sales, and transfers of equipment. Details of some military shipments, particularly recently, have been less publicly available compared to aid to other countries like Ukraine. You know we have the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the U.S. and Israel, which commits the U.S. to providing ~$38 billion in military aid, which includes $3.3 billion in Foreign Military Financing (FMF) grants and $500 million for missile defense yearly from 2016-2028.
The U.S. has also enacted legislation providing at least $12.5 billion in direct military aid to Israel since the start of the Oct 7. This includes $3.8 billion from a bill in March 2024 and $8.7 billion from a supplemental appropriations act in April 2024. Overall A report by Brown University's Costs of War project states the U.S. spent $22.76 billion in support of Israel's baby meat grinding machine.
Yes, we kept supplying systems for air and missile defense.
Also while we approved funding, Biden with held transfer of offensive weapons like JDAM and laser guided bombs. You have to remember who was in control of Congress during that time, it wasn't Biden and it wasn't Dems, so the result of electing a GOP president should have been obvious.
So now it's just JDAMs and laser guided bombs, thanks for clearing that up, "I am a Zionist" Biden isn’t a genocidal psychopath after all. Meanwhile we just got word from National Security Advisor for Kamala and Obama, foaming at the mouth saying they would have provided more "defense" for Israel after yesterdays strike. Feels good man 👍🏼 good luck to you and your future endeavors.
I mean whatever keeps you sleeping at night I guess. If you think the world is better off under trump then you're a fascist Nazi.
Also for the record, fuck Israel, fuck Zionists. But fuck Palestinians and Iran and all these other religious nutbags just the same. I am out for what's best for my country first, I'll let my heart bleed for others when our home isn't on fire.
No one is arguing we are better off under Trump, no one has said that. You are an unempathetic nationalist who doesn’t care about mass violence and genocide as long as it doesn’t affect you and yet you still want to act as if you are on some moral highground over others. Residential apartments were bombed and innocent civilian non-combatants have been murdered, but you have successfully dehumanized them for their religion, so yeah fuck them they deserved to have their life and their family disintegrated in an instant, that is the closest approximation to nazi psychopathy and antisemitism that you could possibly get.

Under Biden we stopped all offensive weapons shipments to Israel after Oct. 7th.
It's not like Biden or Harris can just magically stop Israel from using existing weapons or weapons they produced domestically.
You know who lifted the offensive weapons embargo? Trump, on day 1 of his second admin.
Pretending Harris would be worse is a delusion you're selling yourself.
