I once read it that USA give Israel more aid than they (meaning USA) gives to entire sub-Saharan Africa. I leave it to you to figure out how many people live in sub-Saharan African when compared to Israel. And I leave it to you to figure out who would need that money more.

Every President has 'given' money to Israel.


You people need to sit back and learn before jumping around like a fire just started everytime something happens.

If any of the sub-Saharan dictators allowed us to aid their people directly, we would do it. We are certainly not going to give some third-world despot billions of dollars to buy more ak-47's or more $45,000,000 jets.
