The Trump administration has asked Congress to green-light the transfer of around $1 billion worth of bombs and other weapons to Israel, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday.
The weapons would include 4,700 1,000-pound bombs, worth more than $700 million, and armored bulldozers built by Caterpillar, worth more than $300 million, the report said, citing US officials.
A week ago, Trump announced that he directed the US military to lift the hold, imposed by former Democratic President Joe Biden, on the supply of 2,000-pound bombs to Israel.
“We released them. We released them today. And they’ll have them. They paid for them and they’ve been waiting for them for a long time. They’ve been in storage,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One.
Biden’s administration last year halted shipments of the bombs, warning that use of such large munitions in densely populated areas would cause “great human tragedy and damage.”
A single 2,000-pound bomb can penetrate thick concrete and metal, generating a massive blast radius. Reuters reported last year that after the October 7, 2023, attack by Hamas militants from Gaza, the Biden administration sent thousands of 2,000-pound bombs to Israel, although it placed a hold on one shipment.
Winston here from Iowa. I’m always watching to see what newer sites are going up and I just wanted to see if you would like an extra hand with getting some targeted traffic, Create custom AI bots to answer questions from visitors on your site or walk them through a sales process/funnel – I could even make a persona of yourself or employee to field questions about your business. I create/edit videos/images/adcopy, create/revamp/update sites, remove negative listings, the list goes on. I’ll even shoulder 90% of the costs, dedicating my time and tools that I’ve created myself and bought over the years. I’ve been doing this for over 22 years, helped thousands of people and have loved every minute of it.
There’s virtually no cost on my end to do any of this for you except for my time starting at 99 a month. I don’t mean to impose; I was just curious if I could lend a hand.
Brief history, I’ve been working from home for a couple decades now and I love helping others. I’m married, have three girls and if I can provide for them by helping you and giving back by using the tools and knowledge I’ve built and learned over the years, I can’t think of a better win-win.
It amazes me that no one else is helping others quite like I do and I’d love to show you how I can help out. So, if you need any extra help in any way, please let me know either way as I value your time and don’t want to pester you.
PS – If I didn’t mention something you might need help with just ask, I only mentioned a handful of things to keep this brief 🙂
All the best,
Winston
