Warsaw plans to buy nearly 100 Apache attack helicopters manufactured by Boeing for $12 billion. Until Poland receives the helicopters, the US will provide Apaches to its NATO ally. 

The Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) announced the State Department greenlit the massive arms sale on Monday. The deal is for 96 AH-64E Apache Attack Helicopters, spare parts, thousands of missiles, other munitions, as well as maintenance and training for the helicopters. 

The State Department claims the sale will further the security of the US. “This proposed sale will support the foreign policy goals and national security objectives of the United States by improving the security of a North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Ally that is a force for political stability and economic progress in Europe,” the DSCA press release stated. “The proposed sale will improve Poland’s capability to meet current and future threats by providing a credible force that is capable of deterring adversaries and participating in NATO operations.”

Poland is amid a military buildup with its neighbor, Belarus. Minsk has increasingly sought closer ties to Moscow and now hosts Russian tactical nuclear weapons. Any conflict between Poland and Belarus would likely cause a nuclear holocaust perpetrated by the White House and Kremlin. 

Warsaw says until it is ready to field its own Apaches, Washington will deploy American attack helicopters to Poland. Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak said, “until the procedures are completed and the purchased helicopters are delivered to Poland, the US Army will provide us with Apache helicopters from its own resources.”

Own a piece of libertarian activist history! In 2013, the police accountability organization Cop Block produced a one-time run of "Shiny Badges" modeled after the Keene, New Hampshire police department badge from a manufacturer of "real" police badges. The heavy-weight badge features the Cop Block logo and the words: "Shiny Badges Don't Grant Extra Rights,” reminding the police of the incredible delusion required to believe a shiny badge gives one an exception from morality or the "right" to imprison peaceful people for victimless crimes among other immoral transgressions required for the job.

The Art of Liberty Foundation acquired Five (5) of these at PorcFest 2023, and we are auctioning these off to support the foundation.
