Well Isn’t That Convenient
The war in Ukraine is winding down and you know this because the appetite from Congress for more Ukraine funding is fading and the Usual Suspects like Li’l Lindsey “Definitely Not A Faggot” Graham are screeching for more money. That is bad news for the bottom line of defense contractors that have been getting rich(er) from that sweet, sweet aid money. We can’t have that of course so along comes this:
OH NO, MUH GREATEST ALLY EVER!
Just like that, a new war for us to spend money on.
Now that Israel is under attack, in a totally organic move, no one gives a shit about Ukraine all of a sudden.
The U.S. government is tripping over itself to promise anything the Israelis want.
Billions every year in direct aid and who knows how many billions in material aid but we are going to give them whatever they need. The big difference is that when Israel is under any threat, almost no one in the Republican party will dare ask any questions. Here is governor of Florida Ron DeSantis who takes a back seat to no one when it comes to sucking up to Our Greatest Ally.
Watch for a bunch of cash and gear to head over to Israel in short order, and not leftovers and cast-offs like we were sending to Ukraine but primo top-of-the-line stuff.
It is all so dreadfully transparent and predictable.
