Senate Democrats give Israel the finger.

Forty Democratic senators supported self-hating Jew Bernie Sanders in his attempt to prevent the shipment of military equipment already paid for by Israel. D9 tractors and gravity bombs were the two primary items, and the motion by the geriatric multimillionaire failed, with seven whole Democrats joining Republicans in rejecting the measure. How long before every Democrat votes against Israel? Maybe before the start of the 2026 NFL season?

The D9 tractor is a very interesting tool in the hands of the Israelis. It’s a 50-ton Caterpillar earth mover to which the Israelis add 20 tons of armor as well as a remote-controlled machine gun. There is a fully autonomous D9 that is used far less than the two-soldier version including an officer and a driver. I don’t know of any other country that uses the D9 in actual combat, as opposed to non-combat applications like clearing a road or building a runway. In Israel, the D9 is used like the Bears putting William “The Fridge” Perry at 335 pounds as a running back next to Walter Payton.

The D9 has several key roles in IDF war-making. The first is to make paths for soldiers. When Israel entered Gaza, it knew that Hamas had already set roadside bombs on all of the streets that led from Israel into the heart of the enclave. As I say, the Arabs always fight the last war. So Israel came with D9 bulldozers accompanied by Merkava IV tanks and simply knocked down buildings so as to invent new routes of ingress. This caught the local terrorists by surprise. Their whole defense—like the Maginot Line—was based on false assumptions about troop movements based on logical approaches. The Israelis simply ignored the known routes and created new ones, which allowed them complete surprise and fast dominance in the battle space.

The other major role of the D9 is the destruction of enemy assets. You and I use our houses and cars for our enjoyment and benefit.........
