While true, imagine taking tens of billions in US military and financial aid, unlimited geopolitical support, dragging the US into a war and then saying this shit out loud about your ally.

    Looking at how effective drones are against traditional tech, I don’t disagree with the assessment of the US military being enormous and wasteful.

    • Yes. We have a lot of expensive tech. We pay our soldiers a pittance. Their families are on food stamps. (SNAP, which is all digital, now.)

      Also Israel gets their weapons from the US for free, since a lot of elected officials are captured by AIPAC.
