Okay if their so smart, let them try to run their own country (and hot wars) without America paying for ALL of it.
“Okay if their so smart, let them try to run their own country (and hot wars) without America paying for ALL of it.”
Israel GNP: 520.4 billion PPP dollars (2023)
US Aid to Israel: 3.5 billion dollars (2023)
US’s GNP: 27.53 trillion PPP dollars (2023)
Less than ONE PERCENT, and given that the US is pretty much the only country giving them aid, so Israel takes care of the 99% by making and selling things like pagers and phones, and other stuff.
I realize these are big numbers, but do the math anyway - we can afford it for a REAL ALLY, as opposed to someone who got Trump impeached. Now if you want to talk Ukraine cost - probably $500B or more, when it is all added up (including the replacement of our weapons).
The fact that they have us paying for it and they’re not is a testament it to my original comment
Thanks for pointing that out
