Isreal thanks to our money is now the neighborhood bully.They could probally take on all the arab countries and if the superpowers did not intervene they would kick all there a$$es.We are broke as a bum hanging out at the mission.It is time to get our house in order and stop worrying about the rest of the world.
Cut 'em loose. I don't give a rat's ass about Israel. They've got all the weapons and bombs they need. The less we are in the Middle East affairs the safer we are.
We need to quit building them military bases as well (we do that).
Me, as an American, hope that they cut funding of Israel.
You don't want to get me started on Israeli politics.
Thank you for saying all that really needs to be said...
Israel is a fairly wealthy nation. As much wealth as Italy or Spain. Let them foot the bill for their misdeeds for a change.

My bad grammar aside, that is.
There's no reason for use to spend that kind of money for no product.

Worse still all that money buys us is an equally big headache. Our problems in the Middle east are vast and a good share of them stem from our very biased approach to Israel and the double standard that goes with it.
What baffles me is how does such a tiny country find a way to dominate our elected reps?

There was an interesting news story on German TV yesterday, I could only understand part of it because they talk too fast!
It seems the world is questioning the US allegience to Israel at all costs, including the possible destruction of a good part of the world.
Stop blaming the Israelis for this. We have been using them as a beachhead in the region for 60 years. They are fighting for their existence, we are financing to remain a presence.
Additionally, If Iraq is a success then Israel won't be as important.
Still it doesn't surprise me that lefties have no problem with the collapse of democratic societies.

Not surprising because even our most loyal of allies disagree with our approach to Israel.
What does our 3 billion anual gift to Israel cost us?
Last year 800 million to rebuild Gaza.
A beat down in the UN everytime Israel does their selfdefence bit.
0 credibility in the ME.
Billions a year in maintaining a naval task force in the MED mostly required to show our strength to those who hate Israel and by default the USA.
Israel is roughly the size of Delaware. I wonder how much does Delaware cost the US tax payer compared to Israel?

The world?! Yeah right!
Germany and most of Europe is directly responsible for the existence of Israel. They need to wait for at least 100 years post WW2 before any criticism of it is even a thought in their weeny minds.

I think you are missing the point. Delaware is part of the United States...Israel is not! Cut them off. Cut off all foreign aid. Israel should be paying us.
