Democrats! That is who and what is behind the Anti-Israel sentiment in Congress.

Though I'd agree, there's no political capital there since the Iron Dome aid was passed in a stand alone bill in the House, but blocked by a Republican in the Senate.

People who don’t want our government to send our tax dollars to foreign countries may be isolationists, but they are not “soft” anti-Semites as the article implies.

And the difference is? Its like saying one hates Zionism and Israel but likes Jews. They are closet anti-Semites.

Was just watching this.

David was our tour guide in Israel. Former tank commander in the IDF.

Calling everyone who disagrees with any of Israel's policies or any support that America gives to Israel an anti-semite is akin to liberals calling anyone a racist who disagrees with CRT.

If anyone who disagrees with Israel is an anti-semite then a huge number of Israelis and American Jews would earn that title as well

“...we should keep our money for ourselves.”

You might want to consider that our money to many nations is what’s keeping them from starting a war with their neighbors and causing everyone to jump in to stop it. It is saving lives by giving them an opportunity to progress and not lose ground to mazlo.

And at the same time it is keeping some more powerful countries happy enough not to launch an attack from fear of losing anything. Over the past century we have had Japan, Italy, Korea, Vietnam and others have to try to look to the future and what their projected needs are going to be and they had to expand to get there. The latest example is China and their food problem that is getting worse with no light at the end of the tunnel.

Jonathan Pollard. The USS Liberty. Et Cetera. How many divisions of IDF fought with our boys in Kuwait, Iraq or Afghanistan? Some staunch ally.

Just stop already, it’s tiresome.

You're tiresome. Why should the IDF have fought in Kuwait, Iraq, or Afghanistan? Especially after the U.S. asked them NOT to participate? However, Israel contributed greatly with military hardware improvements used by the U.S., such as drones, enhanced capacity fuel tanks for U.S. aircraft, an improved targeting system for Cobra copters, use of Israeli hospitals for U.S. wounded, and of course, Israeli intelligence. You are a simplistic jerk with a big mouth.
