American Jews have long been staunch Democrats, but over the last 15 years or so the Republicans have been pretty successful in courting them. It looks to me like the Republicans look to have US taxpayers finance, to the tune of $5B, a political offer.

They are trying to buy votes.

They will likely win!

Last month, every country in the United Nations condemned the U.S. for it's embargo against Cuba - except one country, Israel. Just a little pay back for supporting us.

That and the fact that the Cubans have troops on the ground in Syria supporting the Shia side of the current Islamic War whereas the Israelis are on the Sunni side.

Netanyahu's new communications director accusing President Barack Obama of anti-Semitism and suggesting that Secretary of State John Kerry had the mental abilities of a 12-year-old.

Republicans want to cancel Social Security, Medicaid, SNAP, Pell Grants. Yet this Republican Congress can give Israel $5 billion of our money to Netanyahu. Why?

Why are we getting raped by Israel and blaming immigrants or China for our problems? Are we seriously retarded or what?

Yes the government has been retarded for decades, both sides.

IF they give it to them it's not just the republicans..

This in spades! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The U.S. gives money to a lot of foreign nations:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_foreign_aid

To link one nation's foreign aid to other domestic programs, is a failure of you. Please take a break from the internet. The time away will do wonders for your sanity.

Why would I take a break from the internet. If you don't like it, put me on fucking ignore.. its there for a reason.

And regarding foreign aid.. that's to get something back. We get nothing back from Israel except Israel killing American Citizens.

apparently you have no clue.....

Israel is a fucking bum totally dependent on US welfare.

Did they ever help us in Iraq/ Afghanistan?
Did they ever help us with our debt?

Israel is like the kid that refuses to move out of its parents (America's) basement.

More like Israel is like America's wealthy and entitled kid bully who regularly binge drinks and crashes his car killing people, and we keep showing up in court telling the judge and jury (i.e. every other country) that he can't be held responsible because he has "affluenza" and doesn't know any better. I wonder who or what gave Israel this entitled and arrogant attitude and the idea that they can act with impunity?

because we support Israel no matter what.

It's just unfortunate that Prime Minister Netanyahu rose to power after an Israeli fuck-up assassinated Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin...

what follows? well... the rest is history as they say.

After how this shithead and his Likud zealots have treated the US lately, we should respond by sending a representative to the Knesset, without informing Bibi or his people, saying sorry, we reserve our funds for allies who act like allies. Give us a shout when fuckwad isn't in office anymore, later.

The balls of this guy, to talk down to us, to insult and disrespect the government his country owes it's survival to...then to come back with his hand out, acting entitled to $ 5billion. This is why the American/Israeli relationship is changing and rightly so. Fuck Bibi.

The aid package is the consolation prize for the Iran deal. Bibi would much rather we spend several trillion to destroy Iran the same way we did Iraq but all the propaganda efforts from Israel & friends came to naught.

Expect right wing politicians to use the occasion to beat some cash out of Israel's supporters.

OP brings up a good point if we have to make changes to SS or Medicare for our retired folks we simply cannot afford to be handing out money like this.

Raise the contribution cap from the limit of about the first 115k (in that ballpark iic) in wages/salary for Social Security to about 230k that might solve much of the funding problem with that. But that won't happen. I don't know as much about medicare as I should.
