I wouldn't call Israel an enemy, it's more like a whore John relationship. She wants the money up front and refuses to kiss us.
At least you're discussing something you know something about. For a change.
The US sends about 2B a year. Most of that is spent in the U.S. on supplies, some of it comes with that very stipulation. That pales in comparison to the money the US sends Egypt (2nd largest recipient), the Palestinians, and other freaks of nature.
Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East and therefore a natural ally.
Israel funnels lots of intel back to the US on mid-east happenings. It also provides a test ground for many of our weapons systems.
Those calling fr cutting off aid are motivated by jew-hatred. There is no other rational reason.
What topic have I been wrong about? I'm all for aid but against military aid for any country. And I disagree cutting funding is motivated by hate.
Giving money to a country is the same as military aid.
I'm against all foreign aid whether it be to Israel, Libyan Al-Qaeda members, Egypt,, Mexico etc etc.
I guess I have this crazy idea that my american tax dollars should be used for, well, america.
