Israel could overwhelmingly defeat any of its neighbors in a military conflict. The notion that a country like Syria, Jordan, Egypt, etc. could "swarm in and murder or enslave every single Jewish person in that country" is downright silly.

Israel doesn't rely on U.S. financial aid and military assistance for its survival as a nation. It relies on these things because it can't maintain itself as a modern European-style socialist state without them.

With all due respect, U.S. taxpayers have no obligation to maintain any other nation's utopian economic delusions.

Interesting theory, but as common to you Israel haters, so much horses**t.

Israel's GNP is somewhere near $103B, American aid is approximately 2-3%.

If Israel does what you say because of American aid, it's a continuation of a Hanukkah type miracle.

Give the Jews 3 Billion dollars and they make it work like 103 Billion.

The moral of the story. Give all your money to a Jew to invest.
