Why are we paying for their defense? Enough!

I have to say watching the night footage of Iron Dome in action was pretty impressive.

Make it $10 billion, and cancel all other foreign aid.
Look at how Israel sunk Iran's largest ship yesterday and likely caused a gigantic refinery fire in Iran today. Clearly we get our money's worth...especially if it enrages Samantha Power.

The article isn't clear, but I assume this is a request for additional aid, not simply permission to purchase Israeli technology from US contractors.

We’re not. We’re paying the MIC to sell stuff to them.

Because the Izzys have shared their anti missile tech with us.

Ok. So, Hamas lobs rockets (paid for by Iran) at Israel, and Israel stops the rockets (paid for by USA).
Its cheaper to just have the USA lob rockets at Iran and finish it once-and-for-all.

They will be lucky to get 1 dollar, let alone 1 billion from Hater in Chief, Joe.

Because we are a forward supply depot and secure beachhead for the USA in a dangerous place.
All while developing weapons and defense measures that are utilized by the USA.
As an aside, all this money goes to American workers as it is a subsidy for arms purchases from the USA.
