yahoo.com-——Biden’s recent meeting in Israel-—Report

Biden told Netanyahu he would offer support and he expected Israel to prioritize protection of civilians and humanitarian concerns.

Biden formally announced the already-arranged deal to allow humanitarian assistance to move into Gaza from Egypt, and $100 million in new aid for those in need among Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank.......which was hammered w/ Israel in Washington BEFORE Biden left.

Biden also announced that later this week he would go to the Congress with a military support package for Israel of “unprecedented size.”


Backstory Since 1973, Israel has received more than $120 billion US tax
dollars in military assistance, including “three special aid” packages.
<><>billions for signing the Israel-Egypt peace treaty
<><>billions for Israel’s withdrawal from the Sinai.
<><>billions for redeployment of Israeli forces
<><>rebuilding Israeli air bases in the Negev cost $5 billion.

The concerned Israeli lobby made sure Congress is required by law to ensure that U.S. military aid in the Middle East region doesn’t damage Israel’s military superiority over its neighbors. That requirement enjoys broad bipartisan support and has served as a benchmark for ensuring Israel receives robust U.S. support.

What’s the matter, afraid of being throttled?
