End All US Support to Israel

[georgephillip]

Even if you believe Israel should not lose US charity due to the 1976 Symington Amendment (which forbids aid to rogue nuclear regimes), the latest example of ethnic cleansing in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood of East Jerusalem should end the weasel worded BS that assigns some utterly mendacious moral equivalency between occupier and occupied:

"MAY 14, 2021

End Military Support to Israel"​

"Militant right-wing Jewish settlers encouraged and protected by the government of corrupt Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are trying to evict hundreds of Palestinian families from homes they have owned for decades in East Jerusalem, the Arab-dominated future capital of a Palestinian state if one is ever established.

"The settlers argue in court that the land in question was originally owned by a Jewish trust and should revert accordingly.

"However, as The New York Times notes, the apartheid regime treats people differently depending on their ethnicity: 'Israeli law allows Jews to reclaim ownership of land they vacated in 1948, but denies Palestinians the right to reclaim the properties they fled from in the same war.'"

Get out of the country traitor.

Since Israel is the only thing standing between Iranian terrorists getting nuclear arms and us, now that we have an incompetent administration in charge of our country, we should do everything we can to support them.

Who owned them before 1948?

If all hell breaks loose in that region you will be sorry you kicked Israel to the curb....remember they are the little satin...we are the big satin...

Agree or disagree with their tactics, Israel is our greatest ally in the ME.

What about the billions we give to the Palestinians? End that, too?

 

[TNHarley]

Im down for ending all aid to them. Im down for ending all aid to everyone.
No reason i should be working to fund the pockets of a terrorist in palestine or a corrupt criminal in columbia.

We should stay the fuck out of it entirely and stop sending billions of dollars a year to a region in constant turmoil.

Iran has called for a nuclear-free Middle East.
Why hasn't Israel and the US agreed?

Who owned them before 1948?

"The families in the Sheikh Jarrar neighborhood in East Jerusalem were expelled by Israeli soldiers from their homes in Haifa and Jaffa in 1948.

"Twenty-eight families were settled in Sheikh Jarrar in the 1950s by the Jordanian government in coordination with UNRWA.

"They moved into houses built by wealthy Palestinian families who had escaped the crowded winding streets of the Old City in the early 20th century as well as into newly built homes.

"The area was named for the personal physician of the Islamic general Saladin, who settled there when Muslim armies captured the city from Christian crusaders in 1187."

Israel's occupation of Palestine drives most of the violence in the Middle East, and that's exactly why those who get rich from mass killing support the Jewish State.

Agree or disagree with their tactics, Israel is our greatest ally in the ME.

And before we allied ourselves with the Jewish state, the US had no enemies in the Middle East.

I don't see how you can say this...the occupation began after Israel was attacked...live in peace and the occupation will subside...every action has an equal and opposite reaction....

Before WWII the US had no allies in the Eastern hemisphere; we saved their asses.

So?

Right is right and wrong is wrong...and no matter how many times I've seen flaws in Israeli actions I've seen Muslims do worse...they are their own worse enemy....either get along or die...I don't really care....Palestinians bring nothing of value to the world...they are parasites with a grudge...and they have aligned themselves with the worst that humanity has to offer....

Not until the Palestinians have raked in as much as the Jews.

End Military Support to Israel​

"The U.S. turns a blind eye to Israeli violence and theft of Arab land, rarely lifting a finger to move toward a two-state solution while loudly decrying Arab violence against Israelis. The U.S. sends $4 billion a year to Israel—enough to give free healthcare to 1.4 million Americans if we wanted to.

"Joe Biden recently restored $235 million in assistance to the Palestinian Authority that had been cut off by Trump—less than one-sixteenth of the package to Israel."
