The U.S. State Department is the front sales...

Editor's note: ...office for Lockheed Martin, Raytheon Technologies (RTX Corporation), Boeing, General Dynamics, L3 Harris Technologies and Northrup Grumman, with the US congress and senate irrelevant in this process. Here is how it works: The Foreign Military Financing (FMF) functions in practice as a kickback program (an "industrial subsidy") for U.S. defense contractors because the money never meaningfully reaches the foreign recipient and is legally tied to the purchase of U.S.-made weapons and services. FMF funds are appropriated by Congress (the weapons are for Pax Judaica) from U.S. taxpayers (theft but it's called "appropriated"), transferred into U.S.-controlled trust accounts, and then paid directly by the U.S. government to American defense (the "defense" label hides industrial subsidies) firms through Foreign Military Sales contracts. Recipient countries cannot redirect the funds, cannot purchase non-U.S. systems, and cannot negotiate directly with suppliers, guaranteeing U.S. contractors a captive, government-backed market insulated from competition and commercial risk. The program therefore operates less as foreign aid than as an "industrial subsidy" (kickback is a normative judgment, not a factual error) that socializes demand (creating enemies) for U.S. arms, stabilizes contractor revenues, and converts public funds into predictable, policy-protected income for the U.S. defense (war contractors have made billions off Ukraine) industry. From a domestic public-benefit perspective, programs like FMF DO NOT directly provide tangible advantages to ordinary Americans.

Washington approves massive arms deals for Israel, Saudi Arabia

By The Cradle | January 31, 2026

The new arms sales bypassed congressional approval and coincide with the US's ongoing militarization of West Asian waters to reignite the war against Iran.

On January 30, the US government authorized significant arms sales to Israel and Saudi Arabia, amounting to approximately $15.7 billion, as the White House continues to escalate threats of war against Iran.

The US State Department approved four arms packages for Israel totaling $6.67 billion, which includes a $3.8 billion deal for 30 Apache attack helicopters and a $1.98 billion sale of 3,250 Joint Light Tactical Vehicles.

Additional approvals include $740 million for power packs for armored personnel carriers and $150 million for light utility helicopters.

House Democratic Representative Gregory Meeks called the move shameful for "bypassing the Congressional review process" and a repudiation of Congress' oversight role by Donald Trump.

Meeks declared:

"Shamefully, this is now the second time the Trump administration has blatantly ignored long-standing Congressional prerogatives while also refusing to engage Congress on critical questions about the next steps in Gaza and broader US policy."

White House officials justified the approvals by citing Washington's commitment to "upholding Israel's security," even as Israeli forces continue to commit war crimes in Gaza, including ongoing violations that have killed over 500 Palestinians since the "ceasefire" began in October 2025.

In parallel, the State Department also approved a $9 billion sale to Saudi Arabia, covering 730 Patriot interceptor missiles intended for air defense systems.
