did you add 3 Bill that we give to egypt to that Israeli pot by any chance? And, yes, $3b that we give Israel is helping Israeli defense and not economy. My God are you incapable of skimming an article to find out the facts? I gave you the link.....do you have to be spoon fed as well? Seriously, if you are as dumb as nails, post on the GW Bush and stay out of here. On the GW Bush thread, they will think you are a genius! "This year, the U.S. Congress approved $2.76 billion in its annual aid package for Israel. The total amount of direct U.S. aid to Israel has been constant, at around $3 billion (usually 60% military and 40% economic) per year for the last quarter century. A new plan was recently implemented to phase out all economic aid and provide corresponding increases in military aid by 2008. This year Israel is receiving $2.04 billion in military aid and $720 million in economic aid there is only military aid. In addition to nearly $3 billion in direct aid, Israel usually gets another $3 billion or so in indirect aid: military support from the defense budget, forgiven loans, and special grants. While some of the indirect aid is difficult to measure precisely, it is safe to say that Israelÿs total aid (direct and indirect) amounts to at least five billion dollars annually." wrmea.com As for your question as to whether the money goes to the economy or to defense.......my answer: so what?!! I don't intend to explain it any better than that to you. If you don't understand, then again you need to be posting on the GW "idiot" Bush thread. Issues like that stymie and confuse them as well.
