[Desperado]

Here's the letter...

https://teddeutch.house.gov/uploadedfiles/2021.04.21_mou_letter_delauro_granger_signed.pdf

Apparently Israel is "due'' $3.8 billion in assistance in the 2022 fiscal year.

From the report....

''The letter was boosted by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), an influential lobbying group that advocates pro-Israel policies to the US government.''

300+ US lawmakers sign letter calling for unconditional security aid to Israel, causing mixed reaction

Over 300 US lawmakers have urged Washington to uphold its commitment to provide “full” and “unconditional” security assistance to Israel.

Anyway. Irrelevant of the ongoing derelict presence of congress as it pertains to representation of the American electorate, it likely should be recognized that they really are the best politicians money can buy. For someone anyway.

I imagine the trade-off will be something like more technology or some other dirty, rotten, filthy, stinking, underhanded and unconstitutional means for our own government to keep tabs on its own electorate. You know how that special relationship goes, I suppose. All in the name of 'security', of course. Kind of like that barbed wire they put up around the Capitol. That kind of 'security'. Get it? Got it? Good!

Enough is enough! How much more do we owe Israel?
We have been giving Israel since their inception in 1948.
Israel is like a parasite that feeds off the US, The US government keeps giving the tax payer money for no apparent reason, we get nothing out of it We give them money even after that attacked the USS Liberty and killed 34 Americans. Fuck Israel

Another person who whines about the attack on the U.S.S. Liberty (tragic but not intentional and typical of nations attacking neutral ships and aircraft).

The U.S. agreed to provide continuous economic and military support for Israel in order for Israel to agree to the Camp David Peace Accord with Egypt.

another Israeli firster,,,,, Amazing how you can write off American lives when it come to Israel. That was no case of mistaken identity! it was a deliberate attack on n American ship flying an
American flag on a clear day in broad daylight both by air and by sea.
So how long does the Unites States have to support this parasite of a country?

Yet you ignore the obvious:

1) There are no indications the U.S. flag (which was large and very heavy) was flying well enough to be readily seen.

2) Israel had no possible motive for attacking the Liberty.

3) The Israeli aircraft like most western Air Forces are known for poor identification of surface targets.

4) The Israeli aircraft were not appropriately armed for attacking a ship.

5) The Israeli torpedo boats disengaged as soon as it became clear the Liberty was an American ship.

6) The Liberty did fire on the Israeli torpedo boats (with full justification).

Keep making excuses for Israeli... We know where you heart is at and it is not America First. By the way how do you excuse the Israelis firing on the life rafts?

claimed but never proven.

And I've always supported America first. And I can't forget that in response to the attack on the U.S.S. Liberty, Israel saved the lives of hundreds of American pilots in the Vietnam War.

 

[Desperado]

claimed but never proven.

I knew you were going to say that.. even though Liberty survivors who were eyewitnesses to the shooting testified to that fact, but being a Israeli Firster you believe Israel over Americans.

You are smart enough to know that eyewitness testimony is considered the LEAST reliable form of evidence.

2) Israel had no possible motive for attacking the Liberty.

Incorrect ...
The Israeli's wanted to sink the USS Liberty with all sailors lost and then blame Egypt for the attack on the ship. In the hope the American government would enter into the war on Israels side.
But their plan backfired when the Liberty refused to sick even after continually being attacked with bombs and torpedos.

Agree in principle. Our government needs to reevaluate its priorities regarding foreign aid.

Utterly ridiculous. At the time of the attack on the Liberty, Israel had already effectively won the war with no help from the U.S. (the U.S. didn't provide major help in any of their wars until the Yom Kippur War in 1973).

Strategically speaking, Israel is the least of our worries when considering the bedfellows our current Banana Republic is courting.

Not dismissing the subject entirely, but if two kids want to fight over a cookie when there is a whole chocolate cake on the table ...
Well, it's just kind of stupid ...

Not sure how your analogy works. The Middle East is not exactly rich in resources like water and arable land.

Sweetie ... I ain't talking about resources, other than who is covering your six.

Good, bad or indifferent ... If you have a problem with Israel while the assclowns on the Beltway are flirting with Iran ...
You are just a stupid motherfucker ...

Incorrect ...
The war wasn't totally finished, and could still turn against Israel.
Plus, Israel had used up almost all of its bombs and ammunition, and desperately wanted the war to end quickly.
But if Israel could succeed in tricking the U.S. into entering the conflict. It would then have all the supplies and weapons it needed in case the war continued longer than expected.

All that was left were the Syrians and they were not remotely a match for Israel.

 

[DudleySmith]

Ah, the ridiculous conspiratorial bullshit over the Liberty that never goes away. A disguised freighter, one that looked similar to a known freighter carrying PLO vermin and tracked to Egypt days earlier, entered a designated war zone all civilian shipping had been warned away from, where flags mean absolutely nothing when terrorists hide behind false flags as a matter of course, and our own intelligence agencies couldn't be bothered to send a heads up like a sane person would. All the rest of these 'details' are completely irrelevant. It was our own fault., period. put the blame where it belongs, on Arab terrorist gangsters who conduct terrorist attacks from civilian ships.

Yeah, cuz dem Joooooos are too stupid to hide the marking on their aircraft and Naval assets, right? lol what a dumb claim, even for this place.

The USS Liberty did not play their game and it did not sink like Israel thought it would. They expected no survivors that's why they strafed the life rafts with machine gun fire. Israel was also jamming the radio frequencies so no messages could not get out. They wanted the ship sunk with no survivors so they could draw America into their war. That is why they were not concerned about the markings on their torpedo boats and planes.

Rubbish. The flag didn't matter and was meaninfless as an identifier thanks to Arab terrorist tactics frequently used in the region. Take it up with the U.S. Intel officers and their moronic decision to send the ship into a designated war zone without the courtesy and common sense to notify the combatants of its presence and location. What reason could they have had to be there in the first place?

Given that the U.S. was facing an imminent war with the Soviets, there was no chance whatsoever of the U.S. helping Israel.

with no survivors so they could draw America into their war. That is why they were not concerned about the markings on their torpedo boats and planes.

Remember that days prior to the attack on the Liberty the Israelis specifically ask the U.S. to provide a naval liaison to facilitate communication between Israel and the U.S.

You seriously think Israel wanted or needed U.S. help against the already defeated Egyptians, Jordanians and hapless Syrians. ?
