President Trump has released a hold on a shipment of 2,000-pound bombs to Israel that was paused by the Biden administration, Axios reported on Saturday.
The report said the shipment of 1,800 MK-84 bombs, which are in storage in the US, will be shipped to Israel in the coming days. President Trump alluded to the shipment in a statement on Saturday, saying weapons Israel had “paid for” are on the way, although many, if not all, of recent US weapons shipments to Israel have likely been financed by US military aid.
“A lot of things that were ordered and paid for by Israel, but have not been sent by Biden, are now on their way!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

On Sunday, Netanyahu released a statement thanking the president. “Thank you, President Trump, for keeping your promise to give Israel the tools it needs to defend itself, to confront our common enemies and to secure a future of peace and prosperity,” he said.
Also on Sunday, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, who was sworn in on Saturday, spoke with Netanyahu in his first call with a foreign official and vowed the US would continue supporting Israel. According to a Pentagon readout of the call, the two discussed the “unbreakable bond that exists between the United States and Israel,” and Hegseth said the US would “ensure that Israel has the capabilities it needs to defend itself.”
Israel has frequently used 2,000-pound bombs on densely populated areas of Gaza, including tent camps, slaughtering many Palestinian women and children. The Israeli military also dropped the huge bombs on residential buildings in Lebanon.
Biden put a hold on a 2,000-pound bomb shipment and a 500-pound bomb shipment back in April as part of a public relations stunt to make it seem like he was putting pressure on Israel over its plans to invade the southern city of Rafah.
Israel ended up invading Rafah, capturing its border crossing with Egypt, and now the city lies in ruin. Other US weapons continued to flow to Israel, and the pause on the 500-pound bombs was lifted in July, but Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu used the pause on the 2,000-pound bombs to claim that Biden was restricting military aid.
That wouldn’t be a sign of a peaceful president…! Ukraine would follow the same path…!
Trump, you stupid MOFUer!! Now the blood is all over you!! Bidens wars are to become your wars, idiot!

So much for Steven 'tough guy' Witkoff. … typical Trump, …what a stupid farce! WWF.
Long Live YaYa Sinwhar!
The pig Sinwar has a bullet hole in his head.
The two party system is so funny. The israeli owned Congress pases laws in favor of Israel. The Dems pull off public relations stunts and then Trump comes in and implements what the israeli lobby wants but pushes them around when it suits his interests. This is like the law moving the US embassy to Jerusalem. The slimy Democrats (and republican presidents) would not move the embassy until Trump came into power. Its like Labor and Likud in Israel.
It's all so much Kabuki.
I think it's spelled "bukkake".
Most of the time they have functioned as one "uniparty" just with different social issues to please the individual bases.
Then the Democrat bullies decided to move so far left, almost off the cliff, which produced a move to the too far right with just one chief bully greater than life. Here again, Trump gave the base a bunch of Exec goodies (he and his billionaire friends could not car less about) so that he is now free to bully the world. Release the strongest bombs possible maybe even a nuke, "clear out" meaning ethnically cleanse Gaza, tell Columbia to take a hike adn get lost and tell the Danish PM who is boss in the world.
The Democrats have moved “so far left” that their leftmost point is pretty much center-right.
The difference between them and life-long progressive Democrat Donald Trump is entirely a matter of theatrics.
Exactly. In a country that actually HAS Left-of-center parties in our political system, we laugh at Americans claiming a Dem / GOP "Left / Right" divide.
A lot of US laughs with you.
Not only your country… but World laughs at Americans…!
“This is the great power of the two party system. The Republicans are in charge of promoting the interests of the corporate rulers and to push it as far as they can. The Democrats are to control the people so that no opposition ever appears. And that’s a very different task and therefore they appear as very different parties, but they serve the same monied interests and they actually work together as a team to create utter confusion in America.” ~Peter Camejo
I'll wait for our resident Trump cult members to explain this one. It'll probably be a long wait.
Trump is Making Israel Great Again…! The cult majority doesn’t like that…!
Pro-Palestinians who support Trump are in for many more surprises. So far: 1. Let ethnically clean Gaza comment, 2. Let increase the sanctions on the Houthis and 3. let's ship more bombs to Israel. All this in one week. 207 more weeks to go.
Next Prediction: five weeks from now, trump will say: "Hamas broke the ceasefire agreement, so Israel needs to finish the job"
Your comment would have more legitimacy if you weren't in agreement with Trump on those things you mentioned.
Do you disagree with my comment? How is it not legit? Are you frustrated because I am right and you feel the need to argue with me?
No, I don't. But I think YOU agree with what you said about what Trump has done or will do. And I meant legitimate as in "genuine". I don't understand how you can talk about Trump's policies in a negative way while agreeing with them yourself.
Non sequitur. His recitation of the history is correct, and his prediction is eminently plausible. His agreement or disagreement with the policies gives that recitation and prediction neither any more nor any less "legitimacy."
Unless does a complete 180 on his history since 2016 and then puts the pedal to the metal, the only quibble I have with the prediction is that I suspect six weeks is longer than it will take to actually come true.
I wasn't questioning his recitation of the history or his prediction. And it would be a "non sequitur" if I hadn't been reading his comments from the last 15 months that agree with the things he said Trump will do. A comment pointing out Trump's shitty policies while previously agreeing with them makes his comment less than "genuine" (legitimate).
To paraphrase James T. Kirk from "Star Trek V", "Why does an Israel in ceasefire need 2,000-lb bombs so urgently ??"

Thinking like a real estate magnate, Trump renews the delivery of 2,000-lb. bombs to Israel to level all buildings within Gaza so bulldozers and front-end loaders can remove the debris and bodies.
What else are we to make of it?
It's possible these bombs are being converted to Russia's guided bomb equivalent (FAB). Russia and Iran just signed a security pact before Trump announced the one-ton bombs would be sent to Israel. They may or may not be going to Israel.
Is the US and Israel about to escalate against Iran and the Houthis amid a global financial crisis?

Netanyahu is playing trump as expected. Netanyahu's plan is to get trump to green light Israel taking more of the West Bank.
An absolute Sheer Lie…!
