Which means money that Israel would normally spend on military can be diverted to health care. But you’re not the first poster to fail to realize that.

Actually it means that Israel is going broke trying to balance the other four fifths of the military hardware given to the Muslims. They have to draft EVERYBODY into the military in the hope to survive.

Add up all the money given to the Muslim radicals and see how many you can divide it into the second rate stuff we give to Israel.

Like when we delivered all the F16 jets to Israel but refused to include the electronics packages that we did include for the Muslims. Know what you call a F16 with no radar and gun control?

Target drone...

Of course we could have not given any assistance to those dirty Joos and only given Billions to our sworn enemies. But then we would have had to do without a lot of our cutting edge technology that was developed by our ally, Israel.

But for some in this country, thats a fair trade.

I’m not saying there isn’t good reason to provide military support to Israel for the reasons you stated, what I’m saying is the situation that exists with Israel isn’t much different than what existed in post war Europe where we spent over 100 billion annually to defend them, which allowed those countries to build their nanny states and socialized health care systems rather than pay for their own defense. We were basically funding the European welfare state.
