Why is the US still sending an endless supply of arms to Israel without conditions? - Lemmy.World

The law ( the Leahy Law) requires that the US vet any foreign military receiving US arms. However, that doesn’t happen with Israel

About 500 billion dollars worth of oil and gas is the answer.
Lol people on here talking about the US wanting to genocide Palestinians and in the meantime were actively working to build them an economy for after the war

The main issue is as soon as the Genocide started all talk of aid and economy building went out the window.

Read the article with a critical eye.

The US just wants access to the gas reserves, they don’t care who controls it, as long as they’ll be aligned with the petro dollar.

Israel will control the reserves after the genocide is over, that’s the point. Israel wants access to that revenue stream and bombing Palestinians is a really reliable way to ensure that.

The US has been vocal that they want Palestine to rule after the war, though and not Israel. The biggest barrier to the Palestinian Authority assuming rule has been Hamas for nearly 30 years, now. As far as the US is concerned Hamas must be eliminated, the problem is that Israel isn’t discerning in their targets. It’s a difficult geopolitical line to walk since stepping back all but guarantees that Israel assumes rule post war.
