TEL AVIV — With Biden delaying shipments of U.S. weaponry, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced today they will just obtain it from the Taliban instead.
"The Taliban has over $80 billion worth, so no big deal," explained Netanyahu at a press conference. "Honestly, the transaction and shipping will be way more efficient than dealing with the American government."
Biden handed over $86 billion in American weaponry to the Taliban in 2021, but denied shipments to Israel last week over concerns that they might not be as responsible as the Taliban. "We just don't trust the Jewish nation, they're very sneaky," sad Biden spokesman John Kirby. "We in the Biden administration want to be extremely cautious about who we allow to have such sophisticated weaponry, which is why the primary people we give weapons to are Eastern European warlords and the guys who did 9/11."
With the weapons shipments on hold while the few living hostages remain under Hamas control, Israel decided to simply purchase American weaponry from the enormous store in Afghanistan. "There are tons of American weaponry stores all across Afghanistan, plenty to choose from," said an IDF commander. "My personal favorite is Muhammed's Army Surplus, very good prices. We'll be fine."
At publishing time, Israel had announced that if the Taliban ran out of American weaponry, they would start purchasing it from the dealer in Qatar next to where the Hamas leaders live.

The Bee scores again!!!
I know it’s the bee but, they are more if a prophecy announcement than a destination for humor.
The Bee, saying the quiet part out loud, once again.
Our so-called leaders are so thoroughly corrupt and compromised, they don't even try to hide it.
Why should they hide their corruption.
What are we going to do about? Vote? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It was 50/50 this being the Bee!
LOL.
Hilarious!
When did the Bee give up satire, and become a serious news agency?
The Bee should give their writers a raise. This is gold, Jerry! Gold!
LOL!
That’s hilarious. I almost believed it.
I believed it for 30 seconds. This is one of the best!
Their weapons were shipped to Ukraine, why not buy them from Ukraine, and give biden his 10%?
Good stuff, and it reminds me to the saying “Visit Israel before Israel visits you.”
Understanding the mood of the Bee’s article, the fact that brandon shipped weapons to Qatar and Lebanon (of all places) just the day before halting shipments to our actual ally, means brandon is arming Hamas. we know where those weapons will go and so do brandon’s bosses.
the Bee scores another victory

and there’s truth in it, too. Israel AND EVERY OTHER NATION we sell arms to....now needs to diversify away from America. Getting stabbed in the back during hostilities is NOT an acceptable defense strategy for any responsible country. So, I’d guess that USA is going to lose at least half of its exports in this (substantial) sector. Quite possibly 3/4.
Relying on USA for essential supplies is a loser now.
Europe? Asia? Africa? everybody is watching Biden/Blinken’s perfidy. Everyone is watching.
Indeed and the money doesn’t get whacked by you know who.
Watch Biden believe this and go nuts; well, he already is there but anyway ....
Some days it’s REALLY HARD to tell this isn’t satire. Really hard.
