I think it is fine to question financial aid to Israel, but perhaps the US should start with more obvious lapses of common sense - such as aid to North Korea. And while we are at cutting off Israel, we better cut off Egypt and the Palestinian Authority as well. Funny those that mention Israel aid, never mention the hundreds of other nations that get US aid. Especially annoying is European criticism considering their economies were saved from collapse via the Marshall Plan.

The US also gets kickbacks from Israel through the sharing of military technology.

Of course....ALL foreign aid is unconstitutional, regardless of which nation it goes to. The Leftists pick out Isreal due to their hatred for that nation....but I mentioned it 'cuz Israel (along w/ Egypt, which runs in 2nd place, I think) is our largest recipient of foreign aid $.

There is no anti-Israel bitterness on my part.
