A new report out in the last hour details what weapons shipment Joe Biden has decided to halt from getting delivered to Israel over their plan to invade Rafah.
In short, Biden paused the shipment of two types of precision bombs at the last minute in order to send a message to Israel.
Here’s more from Politico:
The Biden administration is holding up shipments of two types of Boeing-made precision bombs to send a political message to Israel, according to a U.S. official and six other people with knowledge of the deliberations.
The U.S. has yet to sign off on a pending sale of Boeing’s Joint Direct Attack Munitions — both the munitions and kits that convert them to smart weapons — and Small Diameter Bombs, according to six industry and congressional sources with knowledge of the discussions.
While the Biden administration has not formally denied the potential sale, it is essentially taking action through inaction — holding off on approvals and other aspects of the weapons transfer process — to send a message to Israel, a U.S. administration official familiar with the process told POLITICO. The official, along with others, was granted anonymity to discuss sensitive internal deliberations.
This appears to be the first time the U.S. administration has delayed a potential weapons sale for Israel since Hamas attacked the country on Oct. 7. President Joe Biden has been under pressure from some in his party to set conditions on aid to Israel after the Israeli bombing campaign in Gaza began to exact a heavy toll on civilians, and after Israel hit humanitarian convoys delivering aid to the enclave.
The munitions were ready to be shipped to Israel when word of the hold came down, said one senior congressional aide and two other people familiar with the incident. A third person, an industry official, said the administration told Boeing to halt the shipment since the approval was held up for “political reasons,” and not because of supply chain strain.
Another congressional aide said the case — categorized as a direct commercial sale between Israel and the contractor that requires sign-off from the administration — is being “held up.”
This is nothing more than a political move on the part of Joe Biden to win back votes from the radical antisemitic wing of his party, otherwise known ad the Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib wing of the Democratic Party.
And it’s disgusting because there is no justification for it. Biden is simply doing the bidding for Hamas with his opposition to the invasion of Rafah and he should be impeached for it.
