The Israel Air Force is crafting a recommendation to increase production of bombs, missiles and other ammunition at home, in an attempt to reduce its dependence on other countries, especially the United States, a senior air force officer says.
The air force’s stance echoes one by Israel in 1967. After the Six-Day War, French President Charles de Gaulle imposed an arms embargo on Israel, which included tanks, missile boats and Mirage jets.
Israel then switched over its dependence on a foreign power to the United States, which provides the air force with all of its fighter planes and some of its bombs, missiles and intelligence equipment – on top of the development of joint weapons systems for all three layers of air defense.
The senior air force official told Haaretz that without the Americans’ supply of weapons to the Israel Defense Forces, especially the air force, Israel would have had a hard time sustaining its war for more than a few months.

Anyone to left of me is secretly to the right.Your combative, incendiary rhetorical style is likely to attract bans all the more often. It looks like you’ve gotten more bans on lemmy.ml than anywhere, and we’re generally sympathetic to your points of view.
Strange pivot since I was not banned for whatever you are describing.

That’s straight up not true.

It’s a general observation.
That’s just false.
I guess that could be true: site bans don’t always propagate to the modlogs on other instances.
Not that I’m against banning Israeli media, but where?
Lemmy.world is openly Zionist.
Not israeli media.
Mentioning that israel could not commit their Genocide without American weapons is a permaban on LemmyWorld/Politics.
If .world isn’t run by the feds I’d lose faith in humanity
Had to block that shithole tbh
This is Biden’s genocide
Without all the donations to Palestinian children, Hamas would starve to death.
