The United States has announced the approval of the sale of more than $7.4bn in bombs, missiles and related equipment to Israel, which has used American-made weapons to devastating effect during the war in Gaza.

The state department has signed off on the sale of $6.75bn in bombs, guidance kits and fuses, in addition to $660m in Hellfire missiles, according to the US Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA).

The proposed sale of the bombs “improves Israel’s capability to meet current and future threats, strengthen its homeland defense, and serves as a deterrent to regional threats”, the DSCA said in a statement.

      I will never stop blaming the party, the candidate, the people who refused to vote to stop the fascist and the people who did not vote at all.

      Unlike you, apparently, I think there is plenty of blame to go around because I do not view the world in black-and-white terms.

      But more importantly, I could not give less of a fuck anymore. It already happened. Months ago. It’s over. Move on to the problems of now. I understand it’s fun fun fun to argue about the election, but the election is over.
