So we’re placing ourselves in an active war zone solely for some minerals we could without?

Man Trump must be an even worse negotiator and leader than I thought. And here I was giving him credit. But Ukraine has no strategic importance to America and we’re risking a world war over minerals we could do without?
what do you think is a better option this or being dependent on china for those mineral?

Lol ok dude. Israel was founded around 1950 and we’ve given them hundreds of billions of dollars, more than any other country on earth

Absolutley silly to think they would be just fine without American support, surrounded by countries that want them wiped off the earth in the Middle East
Look up the six day war. If you're actually interested in the topic rather than trying to score cheap political points.

France was the one they were buying weapons from, not us.

I'm sure our aid has been helpful. But it's to keep us an ally in the middle east, not because they were helpless and needed our assistance.

55 billion total in the last 10 years with 17 of that as a result of October 6th. long way to go to get to hundreds of billions.
in 2024 Israel alone bought 35 billion dollars of weapons from us.

i understand you want to hate on Israel but the numbers dont match what you're saying and they at least are buying the weapons while we have been giving them to the Ukraine

I don’t hate on Israel, I support them, especially after October 6

there was an agreement in 2016 where we agreed to pay Israel 3 billion a year which i still dont understand when they constantly buy weapons from us for much more than what we're paying them. its almost like we're giving them a rebate on the weapons they're buying
