My comment about Obama was supposed to be funny sarcasm. Obviously it fell flat with you.
My joke about your ethnicity (you've made it clear that you're Jewish...a group known for great humor) fell flat too.
So I struck out twice. Sue me. Lol
American first no matter what. Religion is secondary. I have no sense of humor and sarcasm on CD is hard to tell with all the people I deal with on CD (I don't take anything for granted). So do I call you Sue now?
We have Zero control over Israel, point to anything the US has asked Israel to do that they actually complied with.
I am with those here that say cut them off along with every other country, we are not their golden goose and cannot afford to take care of the world. We need to take care of our own before even considering taking care of anyone else.
We have enough $$$$ for ALL.
Fedgov can put money into any electronic account in the blink of an eye.
We buy influence around the globe with the US dollar.

Moshe Feiglin MK, the Likudnik speaker of the Knesset, admits that US aid to Israel harms Israel:
No, he didn't "admit" that. He voiced his opinion that it does. You don't "admit" an opinion, and your own post would carry more weight if you didn't use prejudicial phrasing such as that.

"Israel, since 1967 has had a special connection to the U.S.. We've had 40 years of good relations, but at the same time, it's is built on the wrong concept: a concept of a big brother or even a father. This must come to an end. While we have common values and common interests, the relationship should be based on mutual respect...Jews don't want to feel alone. We have no economic need for it. In actuality, the so-called aid is harming us by not letting us determine independently our security concerns. For example, Israel is planning to buy the U.S.-made F-35 fighter plane. Israel does not need this plane; it is forced upon us by the Americans. The plane works only with American-made missiles therefore harming our capability to conduct aviation warfare effectively."
This is an interesting take on things. Liberals would do well to apply this reasoning to the trillions upon trillions of dollars that they pump into the welfare state decade after decade.
Yet another reason why the US should cut off aid to Israel. It does not make Israel any safer and encourages dependence.
"Yet another" would imply there are many other reasons, but you produce nothing. Similar to your phrasing above, this sort of phrasing hurts the point you're trying to make. When you only produce one reason for something, you shouldn't say it is "yet another" reason.

Except that it never seems to influence anyone, hence huge waste of money that we do not have, cut em off. Pssst printing more and more money only reduces the worth of that money.

US aid to Israel is unconstitutional, destructive to the US, and has not bought peace. Those reasons are self-apparent.
The Occidental Observer is recognized as a far-right, white nationalist, anti-semitic site. Along with your post in another forum (which might be deleted) I know what you are preaching, and the message is sick.
