    The Defense Ministry has made NIS 40 billion (almost $2.8 billion) in additional purchases from the US, it says.

    American taxpayer dollars flowing through a foreign ethnic cleansing campaign into the pockets of wealthy investors. Just as the founding fathers intended.

      Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but if Israel purchased the equipment, how are taxpayer dollars being used for this?

        Israel gets something like 3.8 billion dollars in military aid from the US every year. That means money to buy military stuff, with the hopes (or an agreement) that they buy it from the US. That means it’s US taxpayer money sent to Israel for them to buy military gear from American companies to do ethnic cleansing and land grabs in Palestine.
