The law ( the Leahy Law) requires that the US vet any foreign military receiving US arms. However, that doesn’t happen with Israel

    What are you talking about? There aren’t even enough munitions for Ukraine.

    Anything we give away is something we could have sold to at least attempt to recoup American taxpayer investment.

    I’m not sure why you people keep peddling the narrative that millions, or even billions of dollars in military equipment is worthless.

    Sorry, that’s a lie. It’s because you don’t understand what’s happening in the world around you. Your comments are testaments to that fact.

      I assure you the US can produce enough weapons to kill every man, woman, and child on this planet many times over.

      I don’t think it’s worthless. I think it’s a good use of resources

        Who pays for the added production? It’s like you’re arguing the US has more than enough with weapons it was going to replace anyways, then when that’s not actually enough you’re trying to make it seem like production is free, too.

          I’m not understanding - is it your view that we cannot supply weapons because production is too costly?

          Because that’s silly. The ROI is absurd here.
