Trump Scrapes Together Another $6 Billion for Israel

President Trump scraped together another $6 billion for Israel, in addition to the $40 billion in military assistance that the U.S. already gives Israel. The new arms package includes 30 AH-64 Apache attack helicopters and more than 3,200 infantry assault vehicles. The weapons will be financed through U.S. foreign military aid. Deliveries are expected to begin in two to three years, making this one of the largest transfers of American military hardware to Israel in recent memory. The announcement comes as the war in Gaza enters its second year, with civilian casualties mounting and Washington already having sent Israel nearly $18 billion in aid since October 7. Critics warn that the deal deepens U.S. complicity in the bloodshed, while the White House insists it reflects America’s “ironclad” support for Tel Aviv. Complicit is the better word.
