Biden seeks to "allow for the transfer of all categories of defense articles," his request states


The White House has formally requested the removal of restrictions on all categories of weapons Israel is allowed to access from U.S. weapons stockpiles in the country, as I reported in detail for The Intercept today. So you know I’m not exaggerating, here’s a screenshot of the request:

The request would also remove nearly all other limits on Israel’s ability to access the U.S. weapons stockpiles — permanently —by doing the following:

    Dude is commiting a fucking political suicide. He's determined to force people not to vote for him.

      Yeah, it’s been “hold your nose and vote for the least insane” for a long time now, but more the choice is “the guy who supports genocide” or “the guy who really really supports genocide.”

      Fucking two party first post the post bullshit. This is going to get Trump elected when the people who cant bear to vote for genocide stay home or vote third party.

        Yup. It's getting more difficult every election cycle. I'm highly thinking of sitting it out this time. I can't, with a clear conscious, vote for either of these two.

          It's important to at least go to the polls and do something, even if you won't vote for most Democrats.

          Even a Maoist knows that ballot initiatives and referendums exist independent of candidates and parties. I'm a Communist, and while I will not vote for Joe Biden, I do plan on voting for some local Democrats (not that I'm implying you should). It is better to show up and submit a blank ballot than to do nothing at all.

    Wow! That's crazy!

    You mean that there were restrictions on weapons we went to Israel?
