Israel to ask U.S. for $20 billion

Read some of Try_This's posts, many instances there alone. I'm not interested in posting more then what he has posted, not expending the energy when you will just ignore it like you always do.

 

Give me five line items not some massive cut and paste.

 

Nope. Go back and read previous posts. They are clearly listed in detail.

 

The US as a whole doesn't get anything from Israel. All that crap about a democracy in the Middle East is bull, because Lebanon is also a democracy, and has been for years.

The reason why there are militant groups in the Middle East that will attack the US from time to time is because of our unwavering support for their enemy, ISRAEL.

So consequently, our support for Israel negatively impacts the US citizen, as our tax money is handed to the Israeli government, and innocent Americans become the targets of muslim militant groups. However, as it has been mentioned several times, government officials do what they can for the good of Israel. Jews, while a very small portion of the population of the US, show up in the greatest numbers at the polls, therefore the congressmen or the president appease to them the most. So while Washington D.C. loves their Jews, the rest of the nation suffers.

Israel don't need our money, but we still give it to them, $3 billion at a time.

Among other things we give our wonderful Israeli allies: Weapons, miltary technology, and our protection in International Diplomacy. The United States refuses to allow UN resolutions to pass that criticize Israel in any way. The US is pretty much Israels lawyer, pro bono. It's ridiculous. Israel does not do the US one ounce of tangible good. Israel is the sole reason why so many people around the world dislike us, and why 9/11 happened.

 

Once again you show your full ignorance for all the world to see. Muslims have been attacking Americans long, long before Israel was established. Muslims used to plunder american trade ships when America was only just born, with absolutely no provication what so ever from us. Your ignorance of history is truely astounding. To top it off you try and pretend to be american in your posts. Pathetic. You're not fooling anyone.

 

You mean the Corsairs of the Barbary coast?

Guess you forgot that piracy lasted for a few hundred years and that there were European, American and Chinese pirates.

That had NOTHING to do with the Arabs or the Palestinians. Pretty lame even for you.

 

Muslims are all the same as far as I'm concerned. None seem to be ready to speak out against the ideology that it (Islam) has become so I see no reason to paint them with more then a single brush. You need to go back to whatever desert nation in the ME you crawled out of, or at least stop trying horribly to make people beileve you are american.

 

There are Muslims who are just a violent as the Zionists.

What's your problem?

I am American .. of European heritage ... and my family has been here since the exploration of the Hudson River.

When did your family immigrate to Israel and where did they come from?

 

This thread i about AID to Israel, NOT religion.

And US (let alone the world) is in debt as is, why would you give Israel so much money? US needs to take care of themselves FOR A CHANGE.

 

Aye to that. The US taxpayer needs to see through the lie that attacking foreign civilizations and maintaining outposts there is in America's interests. It plainly is not.

 

Indeed. It is great to give away money, but only if one has money to begin with. Sinking further into debt while giving money away to people who don't need it, is very unlogical.

 

Ooops................

 

I see. Americans can cough their way to Israeli prosperity.

 

...Why? Why the hell would you keep sending them money for no apparent reason?

Do you enjoy being their whore?

We send lots of folks money for no apparent reason.

At least we know the Israelis will 'buy' our weaponry.

 

The Shiite Messiah Imam Mahdi cannot reappear after all of these centuries unless there is war in the Middle East. The Mahdi is coming from the East.

 

This is all part of Allah's plan for the return of the Imam Mahdi, the Shiite Messiah.

 

The Shia are a small minority in the Muslim world.. and those who believe in the Mahdi are a minority within that minority.

I wouldn't worry about it.

The last jerk who proclaimed himself the Mahdi was shot dead instantly at the Grand Mosque in Mecca.

 

But Israel offers you nothing. Its not just a useless investment, its harmful. Israel is the biggest foreign policy problem the US has. The only question is why do you keep supporting Israels imperialistic policies when theres nothing in it for you and half of the world hates you for it.

 

Stop aid, built a military installation, deploy 10.000 troops there and its solved.

No Arab nation would invade Israel and it sure as hell would not cost 20 billion to keep their best ally afloat.

 

The oldest and best US ally never bombed the USS Liberty or pulled a stunt like the Lavon Affair to target Americans in Cairo.

 

Nobody said Oldest but you can sure as hell trust Israel not to turn against you. Much unlike the other nations which have a religion which core essence is anti democracy, anti infidel, anti female.

having to go back a long time ago to dig up stuff is quite adorable

 

The Israeli art students were in my building before 9-11.

One floor was leased by the FBI..

I asked them why they had set up in the lobby of a freestanding office building instead of down on the beach where the tourists hang out.

Israel is a freeloader, but no friend to the US....

They have mocked every single US president who has offered a peace deal.

 

Israel offers us nothing? How about a civilized society that shares many of our values? How about a thriving trading partner? How about an intel apparatus second to none? Cutting edge defense industry? This alone puts them ahead of most on that list.

Imperialistic? Theyve given back most of the lands they vanquished from the Arab adversaries and now only ask to keep what is necessary for their own security.

As far as the world hating "us"..let them. 99% of this hate is based purely on jealously and cultural discrepancies...even if the haters cannot bring themselves to admit it.

Strangely enough tho ,based on the foreign aid list I linked...."the world" doesnt hate us that much that they actually refuse the $$$$$.

 

Are Russians freinds of the US?
The Saudis?
Sudan?
Pakistan?

Please.

BTW your generalizations are astounding.
