sdgla, <<However for arguments sake how do you feel about your tax $$'s going to the Pal cause ?>> Israel, pals or anyone else that resorts to violence or oppression as a policy does not deserve any foreign aid from us. That includes Egypt, Pakistan or any of the other rogue nations we hand out to. Can you imagine how much we could help with this amount of $$$$ in the more deserving third world poverty stricken nations?? <<They get as much if not more from us>> That is certainly not true...... en.wikipedia.org Israel will receive 27.5 times more from us than the pals. This doesn't count the federal loan guarantees that Israel receives on the order of another $2B annually (this would take it to ~50x). The more you dig into this stuff the more you realize how outrageous it is. I wonder how much would our own education system benefit annually from this ~$5B?!? <<Not only is Israel fighting her own battles she is fighting ours.>> What battle is Israel fighting that is ours?? What has the west bank and Gaza got to do with the US?? TS
