Horseshit. If anything, it is the OTHER WAY AROUND. And has been since 1948.

U.S. Debt to GDP is over 120%.

Israel's Debt to GDP is under 70%.

Tell me why you think Americans, being aware they are currently ~$113,000 in debt - every many woman and child, to just our federal government, while in Israel the government debt burden is only $36,000 per capita, that you would place American even further in debt to help those who are better off than they are?

Given that reality, why are we borrowing money to give it to them, instead of them borrowing money to repay us?

Our massive debt is NOT DRIVEN by Israel. And in this war with Iran, they’ve flown over half of all the sorties. So we’d be getting a good return on our dollar, if that is the criteria.

We are fighting Iran FOR OUR PURPOSES! We’ve had the stated goal of “No Nukes for Iran” since the Shah fell. IT BENEFITS US!

Israel is helping and in fact doing much of the heavy lifting. Why do YOU want to toss away possibly the only loyal ally the USA has?

Want to save more money than Israel costs us? Pull out of Europe and let the Euroweenies go to hell.
