While I am glad that the IDF is getting its badly needed weaponry.

I have to also ask.
Given Ukraine, Israel and other various nations like NATO & Taiwan, SK,and etc. that we are shipping our DOD arsenal to.

How depleted are our own stockpiles becoming and do we have enough to fight our own defensive war or even the 2 hr Nuke War?

Add to this our $34T+ national debt, can we even afford a war?
