Rand Paul "Cut U.S. Military Aid to Israel" (enemies, Israeli)

[texdav]

I thnik that first we should cut aid to many other countries before israel really. Egpt seems to be one coming upo. I can't for the life of me understand why we would aid conutires supporting our declared enemmies. Not just miltary iad either.

Even obama knows not to trifle with GOD's people.

Rock on Rand, but stick to flying commercial aircraft if you truly understand what you have just done.

[Frank DeForrest]

Rand's father Ron Paul has advocated for this as well.

A benefit of the apron strings being cut, would be a freer Israel to pursue policy without our interference.

Getting serious about the budget?

How much of the federal budget is foreign aid?

This is known as 'political suicide". Surely, he's on AIPAC's hit list now.

That, is why, we have bad politicians in this country.

Too much common sense, just like his father.

What are you talking about? Israel takes our money and then does whatever they want to anyway.

Absolutely. What I find funny is that a growing number of Zionist movements in Israel are advocating exactly this position but we never hear about them in our press. Yet if you read the Jerusalem Post or Haaretz, you can read these sentiments almost daily.

That's a blanket statement I disagree with.

Regardless, are you for or against continuing this arrangement?
