The deal will be funded by US military aid and includes 1,000-pound bombs and armored bulldozers

The Trump administration has asked congressional leaders to approve a new $1 billion weapons transfer to Israel that will be funded by US military aid, The Wall Street Journal reported on Monday.

The deal includes 4,700 1,000-pound bombs worth more than $700 million and $300 million worth of armored bulldozers, which the Israeli military uses to demolish homes and infrastructure in Gaza and the West Bank.

The request for the new arms transfer comes as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in Washington and set to meet with President Trump at the White House on Tuesday. He’s expected to push for US support for Israel to restart its genocidal war in Gaza instead of fully implementing the ceasefire deal.

The Journal report said Netanyahu is also expecting Trump to push ahead with a massive $8 billion deal that President Biden notified congressional leaders about in early January. The report said some Democrats in Congress put a hold on the massive sale and that the Trump administration is now pushing congressional leaders to unblock it.

The $8 billion deal includes munitions for fighter jets and attack helicopters as well as artillery shells. The Trump administration also recently released a hold on a shipment of 2,000-pound bombs for Israel.

Israeli officials suggested that the increased military aid was part of a deal to get Netanyahu to agree to the Gaza ceasefire deal. Trump’s envoy for the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, has said he’s pushing for the full implementation of the agreement, but the ceasefire is very fragile as Netanyahu doesn’t want to implement the second phase.

  1. Why did you censor my previous comment? It was not rude or offensive, merely offering a differing viewpoint? Can't we ask relevant questions in alternative media without being censored?

    See #29, this was an apparent original and performed as to 2020 thru to 2023. So what gives. Seems many other entitled reaching these lists. Some still are playing the 2D single picture with narrative along with some in certain video yet also could be photoshop fixated and or reworked timelines recreated to provide a new contrast in being still alive. When already listed and processed.

  3. How on Earth can DJT agree to giving this psychopath more weaponry, and so MUCH of it? BM's word means nothing and it seems he will stop at nothing to eliminate Palestinians totally. I am hoping to God that this is a play.

  4. 1st initial impression this is a facade' the story does not look right 1 billion release with an 8 billion of additional 9 billion in total. This seems to be its own facade AI created and or the cry of the other side making out to push yet further defamation to the person now in position. attempting to create disharmony amongst the un-woke sure the awakened can see thru all the same, "Something wrong with this 2D picture and words attached" as in all levels of wrongly stated propaganda as too " deception to deceive."
