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.

    From Israel. Try again. Which politician has directly taken the most money from Israel? He’s on your list.

        What point is irrelevant? I asked you which politician took the most money from Israel. And you responded with nonsense and don’t want to answer the question because you know it destroys you. Sorry I don’t spend enough time online for you.

        The adelson family is not part of the israeli government.

            Already have. You won’t answer the question honestly, but anyone remotely informed already knows the answer. You are embarrassing yourself.

              You didn’t make a point you asked me a question. The list I’ve given shows who’se recieved the most from Israeli interests. Whether or not they’re actually from Israel is irrelevant.
