The Israelis really need to reform their welfare state. We shouldn't be propping up a state that doles out so many more benefits to their citizens than we give to ours. First of all they can drop all of the Jerusalem residents off the gravy train, people that aren't even Israeli citizens.

You don't have a welfare state on $120 million.

Civilian aid to Israel is near an end.

Military aid, a pittance compared to the cost of stationing US forces protecting Korea, Europe, etc, is wholly spent in the United States.

Israel benefits but so do companies and workers in the US.

And it's all for a common cause: fighting radical Islam
