Strong congressional support for Israel has resulted in Israel receiving benefits not available to any other countries; for example, Israel can use some U.S. military assistance both for research and development in the United States and for military purchases from Israeli manufacturers. In addition, U.S. assistance earmarked for Israel is generally delivered in the first 30 days of the fiscal year, while most other recipients normally receive aid in installments, and Israel (as is also the case with Egypt) is permitted to use cash flow financing for its U.S. arms purchases. .

US aid to Israel is many billion of dollars, about half has been earmarked for military equipment activities.

Oh, the horror!

Let's build more concentration camps and kill Jews!

I doubt you're giving anybody anything.

I'd second that doubt. The biggest shouters against Israel never say a word about the $BILLIONS US sent to the middle east and north Africa; $8.67B to Pakistan alone since 9/11. Funny how their double standard is always fully exposed.

They live in a world of contradictions, which is why they are always so damned confused.
