I wonder why Bibi would agree to this? How did Obama threaten Israel?

Watching for a 7 year protection covenant.
Advice, when that happens, find somewhere to go.

Good note.
Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. For that small percentage who are in Judea.

What if Congress sends the money on a pallet in an unmarked plane?

I have wondered for years why Bibi gives in to him all the time.

No reason at all the next President cannot tear it up and sign a new deal.

Knowing Obama and his associates, I assume it is something awful. Threats of some kind.

Israel adopting to Trump and reminds me of the Jewish joke: “... the King may die, I may die, or the horse just might learn how to talk.

America first

An important note: aid to Israel often consists of loans, that Israel scrupulously repays. However, *beyond a certain point* such loans are often conditional. The US congress is not above trying to include conditions that Israel does not want.
So the Israelis may benefit from this by getting clean loans of a fixed amount that they can rely on.
A lot of speculation here, but it might explain why.

I would sure like to know just who in Congress or even the WH staff is pushing for stuff like this! It certainly doesn’t come from the brain of obozo as he doesn’t have a functioning one! We need to know WHO it is. The WH staff certainly isn’t innocent in most of what gets pushed from the Oval office or even from Congress!

I don't talk about guns or locations, should I have either at a certain point in time.
