>Who knows what the $ actually gets spent on, but at the end of the day why should the US reward these people that have been living illegally in occupied land with probably brand new, spacious, comfortable homes inside of some area that is agreed to be part of Israel?

Because we gotta get 'em out of there and Israel doesn't want it badly enough. Keep in mind, aside from those in the remote outposts, a lot of the settlers (maybe most) are not religious fanatics, but people who were lured to the territories by the Israeli government with financial incentives. I'm not sure it's fair to punish those people for that.

And heck, wouldn't that have been a better use for hundreds of billions of dollars than going to Iraq?
