Israel's economy is booming as never before, with newly discovered natural gas riches, almost full water independence, and a new Bloomberg study showing the shekel with the strongest rating of 31 major currencies tracked over the last six months. Given all this, several campaigns are asking a vital question more loudly than ever before: Why is a debt-ridden, sequester-suffering, grossly inequitable U.S., bolstered by an ever-greedy defense industry, giving $3 billion a year to a country smaller than West Virginia?

Good question. Why the jets to Egypt? Why is most of the free world defended at our expense?

need to ask the Untied Nations about that!
Same time the question needs to be asked why the only thanks the USA gets for her efforts is Hate and Ridicule!

Because we support dictators and criminals as long as they are "our dictators and criminals". There is no sense of morality to what the US supports or does not support. We lost the high ground under Reagan.

Genuine in simplicity. If you won't give to Israel their daily thing they will turn into bad guys and then ... it's really better to have good guys in the yard

maybe... doesn't really matter, neither dem or repub have tried to straighten it out either way, in 12 years of repubs, (both bushes) and 14 years of dems...(clinton-barry)... blaming one side or the other means nothing...
