Weapons supplied by the West to Ukraine have already surfaced near Israel’s border, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told The Jerusalem Post newspaper in an interview that was published on June 22.
Answering questions on his government stance with regard to providing military support to Kiev, Netanyahu argued that Israel is “in a peculiar situation” compared to Western countries, like Poland, Germany and France, that have sent billions of dollars in military aid to Ukraine.
“First of all, we have a close military border with Russia. Our pilots are flying right next to Russian pilots over the skies of Syria,” the prime minister said.
Netanyahu also stressed the importance of maintaining “freedom of action” against Iran, stating that “any systems that we give to Ukraine could be used against us because they could fall into Iranian hands.”
“Second, we also have concerns that any systems that we give to Ukraine would be used against us because they could fall into Iranian hands and be used against us,” he continued. “And by the way, that’s not a theoretical possibility. It actually happened with the Western anti-tank weapons that we now find at our borders. So we have to be very careful here.”
After the start of the Russian military operations last year, several reports revealed that the United States was pressuring Israel to supply weapons directly to Ukraine or allow the export of copies made aboard to the country.
Tel Aviv rejected the idea. However, it took a political stance more supportive of Kiev and provided non-lethal military equipment to its forces, including early warning, radar and electronic warfare systems.
A Newsweek report from June fueled concerns that not all of the Western weapons intended for Ukraine had arrived at their destination. An Israeli defense official told the magazine that Israel had “seen signs” that the weapons in question, including American-made Javelin anti-tank guided missiles, were being smuggled from Ukraine to Iran.
Still, several other reports from earlier this month talked about a possible supply of Israeli Spike anti-tank guided missiles and Merkava main battle tanks to Ukraine via Poland. However, there is no proof that these weapons were transferred to Kiev forces or could be transferred soon.
Netanyahu’s remarks indicate that Israel understands the consequences that could result from providing lethal military support to Ukraine. Russia could restrict Israeli aerial operations and arm its enemies in the Middle East.

of course the west demonstrates a blind eye to the crimes against the palestinians as well as the continued bombing of syrian targets. they might be military, but they are all speculative. they countrys are not at war. however, nothing is said of that. i imagine if isreals opponents ever get the upper hand, they will wipe them off the face of the planet very quickly. of course in the uk we are second fiddle to immigrants, when will isreal be like us, or can we be like them?
english people are fucking idiots, with a victim mentality. you deserve everything your colonising, bad teeth having, ugly asses get.
i hope, no, i pray that the most letal nato weapons surface near usa’s border
i hope palestine and the lebanon will get a huge amount of western weapons soon to fight israel invasion and occupiers. they have the right to defend them self from invaders and zionist fascist settlers.
bad news for ukraine. evil russian communist opposition leader sergei udaltsov announces his support of prigozhin. ukraine can only hope that putin and shoigu stay in power, otherwise the russian military might get reorganized and reunited and become the heavily effective fighting force it once was. if prigozhin manages to wrestle power from putin, ukraine will be facing real russian military might, and therefore have a big problem then.
when does russia imprison the likes of miller and abramovitch for their dual citizenship to this lie since 1949 and double dealing living in this country “part time” along with villas in f-u.k.u.$.?…
and when does putin do the most honorable thing by summoning home all his loyal “dual nationals” living abroad as their patriotic duty to the men and women fighting and dying in the eastern donbas to come home to the place of your birth or else stay permanently abroad in your “other homes”???
and then of course there is the oil and gas that keeps flowing on tap to western europe and north america as depleted uranium shells get destroyed and drift over populated areas across europe?!!! because it’s all about doing business no matter the cost and the destruction to human life which russia is every bit as hypocritical and duplicitous in as the west!!!
wanting a “multi-polar” world my ass!
you imply that you have to be a jew to be corrupt. qatari royal family are arab tamimis and they are corrupt as hell.
those are the “goy” equivalent”$” that make the tribe p0$$ible in keeping them “alive”!… including putin, xi and modi !!!
you are kidding
never because he jewtin is a traitor to russia. a jew and an agent of rothschild and chabad lubavitch jewish endtime messianic terror organisation.
you have such obsession with jews it is not even funny
chris, you are so uneducated and clueless, it is really a shame ! you can t see the forest due to all the trees anymore. jews rape you on a daily base mentally & if you allowed mrna-injection then even physically and ejaculate into ya face on a regular base, and you not even realize it ! i feel sorry for you – the day you wake up will be a very shocking one for you sad little wimp !
“-thanks american suckers for the free weapons. they are best sellers, you literally made us rich”.
strong tall potent orcs are winning. weak small ukranazi cuck losing!
any way, israel is supporting the nazi-ukraine “provided non-lethal military equipment”. then, the question: why is israel supporting the nazi-fascist ukrainians ? knowing very well what nazi-fascism means. well, it would be good to write these netanyahu words in all holocoust museums in the world.
its becomed obvious that the reason for rf/putin to be pussyfooting the cockrainian snorter brigade, is that they are all joos, yeah, and now, their mastering of chutzpha whines about weaponds floating everywhere. and what on earth was the jerusalem case about russia, buttcheek spreading galore, for the scums of this earth and you, should know this, there is something nobody talks about, why did they all hate joos, anyone.
exactly ! you hit the nail on the head ! they are all scared, especially the pro-putin ruskies here on this board. because they bought so deep into the jewish lies – that it really hurts them to now realize that they got fooled, and that jewtin, prigozhin, abramovitch. chabad lubavitch, merkel, duda, klaus schwab, j. yellen, a blinken, b. gates, soros, and jewlensky are jews and of course are all in cahoots – and fooled them big time !!!
and it hurts them even more the moment they realize that the narrative which the jews put into their naive ruski flatheads that the evil is “nazis” is a lie too, sinks into their consciousness. as the evil is not nationalists let alone national socialists, but plain and simple jews !!! so the direct opposite of what they (the ruskies) got told all the time (by their judaist-communist medias).
why would iran need javelin antitank weapons when it’s been proven that cheap drones, same design as irans, can take out western tanks
because pretend and real joo’s like the irish are good at talking out of their ass.
is that the same israel that’s also supplying weapons to the ukraine???
good, slaughter some idf scumbags.
i hate netanyahu but it’s refreshing to hear someone unabashedly talk about what is in the interest of their own country rather then go along with ‘u.s. leadership’.
but wait a minute… jsa is his country or at least his colony
war criminal nathanyahu is a serial liar he will say anything to prove that zionist are victims what he saying we have smuggled the weapons and given to our proxies
kashmiri, afghan and palestinian jihadis are the criminals.
vlado and prigozhin are both ashkenazis and they don’t hide it. but groups like palestinian islamic jihad are acting like the banderists.
why nobody turns israel against america ? that would be good to watch for change. so rest of the world could live in harmony and peace.
because israel needs america to survive.
probably some israeli weapons too.
hej bra affärer liksom ;)
those javelins would have been from february of 2022…
what about the stories on this site about the “israeli” made weapons that appeared in nagorno-karabak?

splitting the stock never works…20 years ago the palestinians said that this sorts of things are “demonstrations” of new weapons paradigm that are being “demonstrated” to future purchasers…
is this a “demonstration” of their “logistics” or their “distribution?”
