💰US military industrial complex rakes in big bucks from Ukraine proxy war

US military equipment sales to surged 29% in 2024 to a record $318.7 billion, according to State Department figures.

🟠Lockheed Martin shares grew by 38.49% over the past year, reaching an all-time high of $611.74 last October.

🟠General Dynamics has also seen its stock rise by 27.81%, reaching an all-time high of $313.39 in November 2024.

🟠Northrop Grumman showed a 25.5% increase over the last three months of 2024.

While NATO collectively financed Kiev to the tune of $191.2 billion over the past three years, the US was the largest donor of military aid ($68.9 billion), according to calculations by Sputnik, based on data from the Ukrainian Finance Ministry and the University of Kiel.

Much of the West’s vast military aid to Ukraine has proven futile and served as a legitimate target for Russia on the battlefield. A significant portion of it has also ended up in the hands of black-market dealers.

🗣Ukrainian POW slams overhyped ‘on paper’ AWOL-marred military training in France

The subpar training of Ukrainian soldiers in France was just a PR stunt, a Ukrainian POW has revealed.

The much-hyped 155th Mechanized Brigade was stocked with around 2,400 unmotivated and only partially fit troops, said Vadim Veikai, a platoon commander taken prisoner by Russian forces recently.

Since the unit’s inception, there was a record number of AWOL cases, some 1,700 soldiers, he said.

🎤 Zarif explains what Iran's defense policy REALLY hinges on

Iran’s deterrence is rooted in self-reliance, advanced capabilities, and historical resistance to external aggression, the country’s Vice President for Strategic Affairs Mohammad Javad Zarif wrote in Iran Newspaper.

He rejected the narrative claiming that Iran, under regional pressure and economic challenges, has shifted its policy towards going nuclear as a last resort for survival or deterrence as “simplistic and influenced by global instability.”

Reacting to regular Western claims of Iran seeking nuclear weapons, Zarif argues that the country’s defense policy remains consistent with its strategic doctrine.

Record of DEVASTATION wrought by 2,000-pound bombs sent by Trump to Israel

Benjamin Netanyahu thanked Donald Trump for lifting restrictions on the export of 1,800 MK 84 bombs to Israel.

🟠Joe Biden imposed a symbolic ban on MK 84 deliveries to Israel last May amid the IAF’s heavy use of the munitions to flatten Gaza.

🟠Researchers from Harvard’s FXB Center for Health found last fall that between October 7 and November 17, 2023, Israel dropped 592 MK 84s within range of critical hospital infrastructure.

🟠The study found the bombs could kill people 360 m from the point of detonation, and cause injury at ranges up to 800 m away. Of 36 of Gaza’s hospitals, nine had at least one MK 84 crater in lethal range, two with 21-23 craters. 38 bombs were dropped within an 800 m radius identified by Israel as an ‘evacuation zone’.

🟠Between late 2023 and mid-2024, the IAF dropped more MK 84s and other munitions on the 365 km2 strip than the combined tonnage dropped on London, Hamburg and Dresden in WWII, hitting an array of civilian targets including hospitals, mosques and Gaza’s three churches.

🟠Israel's intense bombing of Gaza is thought to have killed some 33,000 Palestinians in the first 100 days of the war, more people per capita than any conflict since the 1994 Rwandan Genocide.
