As if 3 billion dollars a years isn't enough, Israel now wants to the U.S. To promise them 5 billion a year for the next decade in defense spending assistance.
To that I say no. We have too many issues here that need to be addressed that can be greatly helped with that money. I have to get up 430 every morning for work and commute two to three hours a day after working a full day. I am sick and tired of my hard earned money being taken from me and helping the citizens of other countries instead of our own. Our citizens come first. Israel is a first world country and can provide on their own.

*#& that.. Why are they such a leach? Thought they were all that, guess not. You will be crucified if you don't put Isreal first. I wonder how many spies they have currently working in the USA? Nothing more ironic than Christian zionism.

Move closer to work.
Let's cut all foreign aid. And the EITC and child tax credits.
Cut those and maybe people will care more about how much is being spent or should we say borrowed if they are actually feeling it every year with no thousands of dollars checks coming in.
I'd rather it all go towards fixing some of America's problems.
That would be nice.
My father taught me young that you can't buy friends. You can rent one, but then you get what you pay for. Israel may be our ally, but they are certainly no friend of ours. They cost us billions in tax dollars and even more in credibility. Our very biased approach to Israel has destroyed our credibility in the region.
