Huh, USA sends money to Israel for "defense" and Israel sells tanks to Germany. USA budget increased 2 trillion since January, people can't get health care or food.

I believe there are Democrat politicians who legitimately care and want the whole stash of left wing policies to be unleashed.

Unfortunately they will never pass the primaries due to the machinations of the machine.

The machine allows no real change.

Israeli-made?

80 percent of shares are held by German defense companies Rheinmetall and Diehl, with the remaining 20 percent owned by Dutch holding company Ercas B.V.
