U.S. Rushes Bombs to Israel

[Pharaoh]

Damn, they're running out of bombs! Got to make some more.........


The decision to quickly ship the weapons to Israel was made with relatively little debate within the Bush administration, the officials said. Its disclosure threatens to anger Arab governments and others because of the appearance that the United States is actively aiding the Israeli bombing campaign in a way that could be compared to Iran's efforts to arm and resupply Hezbollah.

1. Remember War is peace

until the shoe is on the other foot.
Karma will come one day for the war criminals.

[ixion]

2. the 'appearance' of aiding Israel

yeah. right. whatever. :rofl:

[Pharaoh]

3. BBwwaaBwwwa WAAA!!

:shrug:

[joemurphy]

4. Yes, it's so sad that Arab governments always seem to want

to think the worst of us. Actually, we're just speeding delivery of those bombs to Israel because they paid for them and free enterprise demands speedy delivery. Why, if Hezbollah ordered bombs from us, we'd expedite delivery to them too. That's the kind of thing an honest arms broker does.

[Hubert Flottz]

5. "the appearance that the United States is actively aiding the...

Israeli bombing campaign"

It looks just like what it is!

[WHEN CRABS ROAR]

6. Don't you just love the smell

of democracy in the morning. ENDLESS WAR FOR ENDLESS PROFITS

7. Is this thread going to be deleted too?

[Pharaoh]

10. why would it be deleted?

[G2099]

8. Suppose Russia Rushed Bombs and Armaments to Lebanon?

[bdamomma]

9. we should all know

that the US is behind this all, they just want to expand the war to Syria and Iran. They will anything and say anything to get the backing our naive American population to bomb the hell out of the Middle East.

[God Almighty]

11. Here's the list of people who voted to give tmore bombs to Israel

This bill provides for the sale of new weapons. A similar bill passed last year provided for the sales of the current weapons to Israel. Last year they didn't know what would happen to the weapons. This year, they know and don't care. This bill also provides for the kind of sales in "Syriana" - type situations.

12. War is our largest export......

if it wasn't for weapons and ordnance manufacture the American economy would be much worse than it already is. Yep, we're exporting death and destruction in record amounts. Business is SOOOOOOO good! :grr:
