Your thread title is a little misleading.

We give a lot more money to the Ukraine.

Well I know of a very good spot they can use those bombs.

That is what bombs are designed to do. I’m not sure why they felt the need to add that.

And that's bad, in your mind?

We're selling them bombs, but we're also paying for it? Somebody doesn't know how to write. And for this reason, I have no idea what the truth actually is there.

I don’t know how I feel about it to be honest.
I’m down for degrading US enemies through proxies. I’d maybe like to see this 2.8 split into 1.4 for Israel and 1.4 for Ukraine

If it's even true...it shows that we still have some bombs left after all.

your article says we are selling to Israel.
what's the issue?

Yeah... it ain't sellin', if we're payin'. That's one of the dumbest things I've ever heard of. And I'm not against helping Israel restock its defense where possible, I just think it's absurd to call it a sale when you hand them the money to "buy" it. That's incoherent terminology by whoever wrote that up.

Which will be used to create a world with fewer moslems in it. How is this a bad thing?

The hardware purchase is paid via loan. Like every loan, Israel pays it back with interest. This is nothing new.

I understood exactly what it meant. I think the writer explained an unusual situation well.
