I agree with you, but the question remains, why do we have to give them $8B a year to defend themselves? Why can't they pay for it themselves? Why is the USA a great big tit that every other country has to suck off of? Time to focus on ourselves for a change. We have plenty of problems to solve right here at home.

"Israel MUST be heavily armed if it is to have the slightest chance of defending itself in what is clearly the most difficult strategic position of any nation on Earth." What do YOU think of the idea of moving Israel to the Falklands, a bigger land area with better land, populated by 2000 people? For the sake of world peace? Putting Israel where it is was a mistake of MONUMENTAL proportions. They considered Brazil and Africa, but the religious nuts won the day.
