A battle is erupting in Washington over a little-known provision buried inside the massive annual U.S. defense bill — one that will merge U.S. and Israeli military operations, ceding American sovereignty to Israel.

Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie has introduced an amendment aimed at removing Section 219 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), a provision previously numbered Section 224, titled the “United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative.”

“This is about whether we remain a sovereign country,” Massie warned, arguing that the provision could lead to American military supply chains and technology becoming increasingly intertwined with those of Israel.
 
Massie says the measure would move the two countries into unprecedented levels of military cooperation, involving areas such as artificial intelligence, cyber defense, weapons development, and defense industrial coordination.

So, I guess he has no problem with some Ayatollah taking control of it.

We already knew that.  Now he's just searching for non-existent problems to go with his non-existent legacy!

 Pretty sure an Israeli takeover of the US military really wasn't in the works.

The Israelis can't afford out annual budget deficits.  The one writing the checks calls the shots ... unless he's a chump or a Dem.

America is running out of friends in the world.  We have alliances of convenience, but those countries only deal with us because they need the safety of America's nulcear umbrella.
