We are beholden to Israel until Jesus returns or some shit

To the US Government? Yes, by a mile.

of course

All american are israel worker

Because the U.S. government is Israels bitch.

Israel is the country America funnels it's money into so they can send their own people to die in stupid useless wars instead of us. It's basically war by proxy.

You go back in time to Nazi Germany where they renamed all jewish males into Israel and convert to judaism.

lmao not even. The US sends money to Israel and then the US sends its troops to fight wars against countries Israel doesn't like (Iraq, Libya, Lebanon, Syria, etc). The US is so interested in the success of Israel in order to gain influence in the region and because of evangelicals.

---

So they can bomb Palestine, isnt America just awesome?

Wait, all of us, collectively, have to share 600$?

What can I even do with 12 molecules of copper?

---

Because America is beholden to Israel and always will be.

Being Jewish rocks.

---

Oh yeah, this doesn't even count the money that the US spends on funding terrorist groups that stir trouble in countries that Israel doesn't like.

---

It's sad how many people are surprised at how mich quid pro quo happens to get anything snall done.

Becoming the World police will be recorded as the greatest mistake in U.S. history.

Sure, we've stuffed the pockets of some lobbyists, but the constant inflation of the burden that is the military budget is an unnecessary expense imo

here you go. essentially, crazy christian cult that many republican politicians are either a part of or heavily support believes that god wants the jews to take back all of Israel so the end times can happen and the cult can get beamed up to heaven star trek style. so they give them money in hopes they'll murder all the palestinians, retake the 'holy land', rebuild some random temple, and kick off armageddon...

They need to make Israel the 51st state, so Israeli made Uzis arent subject to import bans.

You anti-Semitic or something, TC?

I kid.

Israel has universal healthcare, $500 million cash to Israel to fund their ammunitions, tanks, jet fighters, so then Israel doesn't have to spend their own cash to get their universal health care system

So in all America can help fund Israel universal health care system while we get shit for bones

Are you asking why you personally aren't getting a bigger stimulus check than all of our aid to Israel each year?

The world is China's bitch. Really wish people would stop trying to use China as a cudgel when everyone's hands are dirty.

If we were really the world police, things would be better off. We are just like russia and china. Just influencing it to our benefits. We aren't doing it for a better and safer world. I hate to sa it but our foreign policy reflects a lot of the shit that cops get away with in america. Soni guess we can be considered the world police after all.

No, the question is why is so much money being pumped outside the US while these politicians shriek "how are we going to pay for that?!" only when it comes to aid for US citizens.

---

Doesn't make any sense to me why people are comparing the individual aid Americans received to aid given to a entire country. You cant compare the two like its a 1-1 comparison. Same goes for every other country. Our payments were capped at $600, the foreign aid weather it was given away or not wouldnt have changed that.

if our country is so strapped for money, that we cant do more to help citizens here, why the fuck are we funding a nation to start WW3 in the middle east? that's the whole point of the topic.

Idk, I guess theres a power balance happening there that the US has interest in maintaining. Must be so when the obvious answer here is to simply let them Duke it until one group remains.

Ask your God pelosi, she funds it. Little people don't mean shit to Democrats. Rules for thee but not for me.

Ask your God Mitch, he arranged all this. Little people don't mean shit to the GOP. Rules for thee but not for me.

Fixed.

Not that I agree with sending the money to Israel, but that would be less than $2 a person if you gave it to Americans instead.

---

So far havent seen any real answers as to why we are spending all this money on other countries? I saw turkey was like 700 million.

Like why?

Are we just straight up giving them cash? Are we funding our military that may be there? Bases? Troops?

Whats the deal?

It's about $57 per person in Israel or $87 per adult. This is in addition to the $3.8 billion we send them per year ($435 per person in Israel or $661 per adult) plus the endless wars we fight for them and the terrorist groups we fund to also fight for them, plus all the business investments we make to ensure them a healthy economy, as well as enforcement of anti-boycott laws to protect their entitled asses.

Again, a real answer please.

Lol. It seem like most Americans know about this but they don't care that their taxes money go to other countries rather than use it for it own country like universal healthcare or upgrade all the old infrastructures.

No wonder America will be the same forever. No matter what side is win it all will be use old way no upgrade and update.

Remember when a certain politician was labeled and anti semite for saying "it's all about the Benjamins"?

Money for foreign aid was not specifically part of the covid bill, but was instead a separate bill.

Someone having an issue in general with foreign aid is a legitimate, but different question it seems to me

Because America cares more about Israel than its own people.
