The United States is expected to lift its hold on the shipment of ammunition and weapons designated for the IDF, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Office said on Tuesday, just one day after the Israeli leader accused the Biden administration of preventing the delivery of those arms.
“US Ambassador to Israel Jack Lew told Prime Minister Netanyahu yesterday that the ammunition and weapons that the PM referred to are in the process of being delivered to Israel,” the PMO wrote in an English language post on X.
That’s a real possibility, yeah, there is no doubt that he is a Zionist. And I don’t mean to speak with more certainty than it really warrants, it’s more just difficult to really believe he’s not coming around to the fact that the far-right “forever war” Israeli government is not only bad for the US, but even makes Israelis themselves less safe by perpetuating conflict and stoking the cycle of violence.
He is perhaps a Zionist without the stomach for ethnic cleansing that’s required to fulfill that world view.
