IT'S WELL KNOWN that Israel is the world's top recipient of U.S. military assistance, but not so often noted that most of the annual $3 billion in aid can be spent only on U.S.-made weapons. Below, a guide to the top industry beneficiaries along with their ethics records.

It used to be four billion in aid after which they were supposed to give us 1 billion in return for armament so the UN doesn't go nutz over America givig free armament to the jews.
$4 billion they receive from us annually-1billion spent on arms=$3 billion free US dollars for kikes.

Well, when I think of us shipping them anything, I guess I have some kind of low-rent B movie type idea in my head, like some Jew gang holds up a mafia weapons truck a couple blocks from Hal Turner's house (sorry , couldnt resist) shoots the thugs and gets the guns to the heebs.. and its all very "black market" and some guy missing and ear with a peg leg handles the transaction.. but.. I know really its not like that, its these big companies , companies I thought were "White" I mean, I look at the names and Im thinking science, astronauts, progress, WHite men.. but then..
it's just another one of those baseball bat to the gut moments..
Kinda like the endless threads about TNB, of course we are not surprised about those, come on, even new people arent surprised about that, this never happens "Oh noo, a black rapist, you dont say? I cant believe THAT!"..
No one is ever surprised. But the further you get into WN , the more you start to feel betrayed and horrified..
at first its like finding the matchbook with the phone # in your husband's suit when you take it to be cleaned, you decide to dig for more evidence, but what you find goes far beyond any simple one-on-one betrayal, you start finding out all kinds of horrible , evil connections you never knew anything about.. then the initial situation , you dont even care about that anymore compared to the bigger things you have found out down the road.
Israel is also known to sell stuff to other countries as well.

jEWISH arrogance : izrahell boasts about itz vaunted military as if iT were responsible for it . Sorry jews ! You would be fighting your arabs with sticks and stones if it weren ' t for White man technology and jew - mafia extortion .

Good analogy, Briseis. The extent and depth of jew control -- and the shutout of White men -- is astounding. We've certainly been pushed to the wall. But most White men don't feel the wall at their back -- because it's still possible to live (a gradually ever decreasingly) approximation of a White life. We are too resourceful for our own good. We can always find a way to slip between the cracks of ZOG and live a fairly decent life there. And so we don't fight the growing discrimination because it doesn't directly affect us personally very much.
Non-whites aren't so resourceful and so, when they become aware of whatever is left of RATIONAL JUSTIFIED discrimination against them because of their inferiority and unqualification, having no recourse (because of their inability to have recourse), they physically fight and raise a group hullabaloo against the discriminator (of course they are allowed and encouraged to do so). Understand that there's nothing innately wrong with discrimination -- it's the mark of a sophisticated free man to discriminate and fifty years ago was accepted as such. The ONLY time it becomes a problem is when WHITE men are not allowed to discriminate in their own nations against non-whites or white non-acceptables and when it's directed genocidally against WHITE men.
Interesting material MK. It should be a Federal crime to supply weapons, any weapons, to a terrorist, rogue nation like Israel.
It *is* a crime, 'Kwa just doesn't prosecute. :box:
