    Israel is one of the largest exporters of military equipment in the world, they wouldn’t have run out of bombs by now.

      They did run out of some ordinances after a campaign that surpassed the blitz on London during world war 2.

      At this time many of the booms are new, freshly minted gifts.

      And so it is 100% alright to export weapons to them that they use to kill thousands of civillians.

        Nope, not what I said. I said that Israel wouldn’t run out of bombs if the US stopped sending them. They’d either make them themselves or they’d buy them from another ally.

      Israeli officials are complaining about running out of tank shells, artillery shells, bombs, and ammo. They aren’t exporting anything right now and they can’t afford to, this slaughter is sucking up their entire industrial capacity.
