It would be wise for Israel to take the initiative, before Tea Party Republicans make a move.
And there you have it -- the spin is that TPRs have it in for Israel. The author's an a-hole. Thanks sukhoi-30mki.

So stop aid to Israel, but continue aid to Egypt, Saudi, and other muslim countries?

No more foreign aid until we first pay our own bills.

Ok that’s fine. No more foreign aids until we pay our bills. Just rememeber when Isreal goes, we are next. Plus, when Isreal goes we will lose not only an ally, but the only one we have in the Middel East, the only functioning parlimentwry democracy in the Middle East, the country were most US R&D originates - everything from Win OS to military advances. (There was a video on Youtube last year detailing this, but the anti-Israeli crowd flagged it and it was pulled).

But never mind, we’ve got bills to pay. Gotta keep the homeless fed and the Chinese appeased.

Sometimes, some investments are worth the cost - even if it means cutting the US Dept Health and Human Services budget down from $875 billion in FY 2011.

“Ron Paul and others of that ilk need a quick drug test”

Paul is not on drugs; he’s anti-Israel.

But, yes, that is the key that Paul misses — if you stop aid to one, you need to stop aid to all. If Paul was intelllectually honest, he’d want to stop aid to Eqypt and other enemies of Israel. But he’s not.

he’s anti-Israel.

Like I said, he needs a drug test along with the rest of Congress.

It wasn’t really a big issue when the US could well afford it. Now it may be different. US debt is supposedly close to 90% of GDP. I maintain you add in state, county and municipality obligations and we are well over 100%.
