This post implies the U.S. sent Israel $6.67B in cash or aid. The figure refers to approved arms sales, not money given to Israel. Israel pays for the weapons (often using pre-approved aid), and funds go to U.S. defense firms. https://apnews.com/article/e73d1fe40974abca838a1a08590934d3 https://www.ctp-inc.com/articles/foreign-military-sales-fms-versus-direct-commercial-sales-dcs?utm_source=chatgpt.com

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/2018079158719717633

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
