We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
Prime Minister Netanyahu at the beginning of the cabinet meeting:
I greatly appreciate the support of President Biden and the American administration for Israel. Since the beginning of the war, the US has given us support in spirit and material - with means of defense and means of attack.
But about four months ago, there was a dramatic drop in the supply of armaments arriving from the US to Israel. For weeks we asked our American friends to speed up the shipments. We did it time and time again. We did it at the highest levels, and at all levels, and I want to emphasize - we did it in private rooms. We got all kinds of explanations, but one thing we didn't get: the basic situation didn't change. Certain items arrived in trickles, but the great mass of armaments remained behind.*
After months of the lack of change in this situation, I decided to give it a public expression. I did this out of years of experience, and knowing that this step is essential to extracting the traffic jam. I expected that this would involve personal attacks against me from home and abroad, as happened when I opposed the nuclear deal with Iran, as happened and continues to happen when I repeatedly opposed the establishment of a Palestinian terrorist state, and as is happening now when I oppose ending the war while leaving Hamas intact. But I am ready to suffer personal attacks for the sake of Israel's security.
As Prime Minister of Israel, my role is to do everything to ensure that our heroic fighters have the best means of combat.
In light of what I have heard in the past day, I hope and believe that this issue will be resolved in the near future. But I would like to emphasize, and I have also said this to our American friends - We have one measure and it has always tipped the scales: the bravery and determination of our fighters - and with this weapon we We will win."

🇺🇸⛽️ Costco Is Now Rationing Motor Oil Because the Global Shortage Is Getting Real
A Kirkland Signature oil change has nearly doubled in price, but that's not the most concerning change to how Costco's selling lubricants these days.
Not only does 10 quarts of Kirkland Signature full-synthetic now cost $58 when it used to go for as low as $30, but stores are now imposing a two-per-customer, per-week limit.
The obvious culprit is supply—or, rather, a lack thereof. Demand remains strong as ever as global stock has dwindled due to our ongoing Middle East entanglement. As The Auto Wire highlighted in its own story unpacking the factors at hand, motor oil ultimately comes out of the same barrel that also gives us gasoline and diesel, and right now, refineries can earn more money finishing crude into gas compared to what Costco stocks on its shelves. We’re all getting the short end of the stick at the pump as it is, so it’s not difficult to imagine the pressure the motor oil ...
I heard about this meeting then found out it actually happened. Had Grok give a run down.
