The United States has agreed a record multi-billion-dollar deal to provide its ally, the Zionist entity, with military aid for 10 years from 2019, the State Department said Tuesday.
The memorandum of understanding will be signed Wednesday, it said, and “constitutes the single largest pledge of bilateral military assistance in US history.”
Officials did not give the sum involved, but Washington military aid to Tel Aviv currently stands at $3.1 billion per year so this ten-year deal represents well over $30 billion.
Washington has allegedly warned that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s policies are putting at risk ‘hopes’ of a so-called ‘peace deal’.
But the Zionist entity remains the United States’ number one ally in the region and the biggest single recipient of US military aid, while also a big customer for US arms exports.
