“Netanyahu’s government has offered the Obama administration “nothing in return” for its generous security aid”

For one thing, a competent, commited military force that serves as a deterrent to our enemies in the region and a staunch ally in the war on terrorism.

That is probably more than we are doing for them right now.

Am I the only conservative growing weary of our American youth dying, our taxes expended, and our nation going further into debt to unilaterally help and defend many other nations that have never spent a single dime or lost one serviceman in defense of the USA?

There are dozens of countries in this category and it is always the now broke Uncle Sam that is still on the giving end. You know what they call people who go broke giving and never getting - saps?

Until these other nations (and I include Israel and many more) that are much better off per capita fiscally than the USA start paying and reimbursing us, I’m in favor of shutting off the spigot of aid and defense and replenishing our own coffers for a change.
