In the unlikely event that this is an honest and accurate poll, the thing that people should take away from it is that the vast majority of Americans are sick of their tax dollars and the weapons needed to protect our own country are being wasted on wars that are none of our damn business.
If that supposed 41% and supposed 31% want to personally donate their own money to either, or both causes they are more than welcome to. And they are more than welcome to pick up a rifle and go to either battlefront and help either side.
The only reasonable takeaway here is that:
<><> the vast majority of Americans are sick of their tax dollars being looted
<><>and seeing the weapons needed to protect our own country
<><>being wasted on faroff wars
<><>wars that have nothing at all to do w/ the safety and security of Americans
<><> and, frankly, are none of our damn business......
Since 1973, Israel has received more than
$120 billion US tax dollars in MILITARY assistance alone,
including “three special US aid” packages:
<>US billions just for signing the Israel-Egypt peace treaty
<>US billions just for Israel’s withdrawal from the Sinai.
<>US billions just for redeployment of Israeli forces
<>rebuilding Israeli air bases in the Negev cost US taxpayers $5 billion.
Besides weaponry, Israel also receives billions in
<><> US economic and US humanitarian foreign aid,
<><>US tax dollars to support Israel’s broad economic development,
<><>US tax dollars to support sociopolitical stability,
<><> and non-military support related to Israel’s pressing security needs.
Military aid and armaments from US taxpayers have blanketed Israel over the years. They have more than enough resources, now, to nail Hamas and Hezbollah. Wealthy Israel has very low debt, and actually had a budget surplus this year.
The US is $33 trillion in debt, a debt which future generations are saddled with.
And let’s not forget, an integral part of the billions of US tax dollars flowing to Israel is conditioned on Israel sharing w/ the US, the crucial intel Israel gathers in the volatile Mideast.
Clearly, that did not happen vis a vis 9/11 when 4000 Americans lost their lives. We should have been warned since 9/11 was plotted in Israel’s backyard.
