Your stance is, I am sure, quite influential. I place you with the marginal types of people whose main authority is Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
I guess it's a good thing if the Pakistani money goes mostly to Swiss bank accounts. I am quite proud of Pakistan's accomplishments as an independent country. </sarcasm>
1. That's a truly cheap shot. Not believing that Israel deserves billions of dollars of American tax payer dollars is not at all the same as not liking Jews.
2. But then, you turn right around and make an insulting comment about the citizens of another country.
So is not paying other countries billions of dollars. Perhaps we should take that up in a world where everyone does not pay everyone billions of USD's annually.
Again, you are failing to recognize the threat from mystical irrational and violent countries that surround Israel. We need an ally and a base area from which to conduct military options if and when a regional or world war begins. Which is not unlikely given the primitivity of the governments in that region and their intent on killing and destroying everything and everyone that does not agree to regress to the dark ages and the primordial ooze.
We're not paying Israel, we're simply paying ourselves through a proxy. And they are probably better at spending the money than we are anyway!
I am fine with giving plenty of aid to any country that commits to the opposition of savagery and primitive decadence.

These proxy situations we get ourselves into -- like Vietnam -- don't work out well for us.

I think you are making some broad, unsubstantiated, claims. Also what direct threat do these nations have that Israel counters? It seems like the only thing unifying them is the hatred of Israel, and because we support Israel the US.

Exactly.
Broad, unsubstantiated claims. Let's stop the nonsense and let's take off the blinders.
Lets just look at the last few weeks, and forget about the past few hundred years, because there is not enough server space in North America to contain all the accounts.
So tell me why we should not support the only state in the region that has a secular, civilized, Western styled society and that is willing to take up arms to keep some semblance of sanity in the region. Without which the entire region collapses into sectarian Armageddon. And that's just what they are doing to each other, I won't get into what they want to do to us. Or actually, I will. September 11th is what they want to do to us, only including all the rest of the buildings.
Summary: The military shuts down the press while the country is at war with the Houthi rebels, whose slogan, according to Wikipedia, is:

Like many Iranian-backed groups such as Hezbollah, the Houthi movement attracts its Zaidi-Shia followers in Yemen by promoting regional political-religious issues in its media, including the overarching US-Israeli conspiracy and Arab "collusion".[SIZE=2][30][/SIZE][SIZE=2][31][/SIZE] In 2003 the Houthis' slogan "The God is great, death to the US, death to Israel, curse the Jews, and victory for Islam", became the group's trademark.
So just when Arabs were starting to appreciate the Jews who have been providing humanitarian relief and changing what were closed and turned off minds, we have a return to savagery in the offing.

Israel is not secular. By definition in its Declaration Of Independence it identifies itself as a "Jewish State".
And that's just what they are doing to each other, I won't get into what they want to do to us. Or actually, I will. September 11th is what they want to do to us, only including all the rest of the buildings.
But you're ignoring the great accomplishment(s) of those people.

Your comments have the sound of desperation.
I'm calling BS. What's a cheap shot here? He's aping the Protocols by saying in effect the Jews control the world. And why, pray tell, do we have to give them bigger killing fields?
