Israel in urgent need of more US money for war on Gaza: Harry ReidOn Monday afternoon Reid warned that the Obama administration’s $225 million request to aid Israel during its current war may not be enough, as Israel continues to massacre Palestinians in Gaza. “We should not give the Israeli people the minimum amount of
aid and then cross our fingers and hope it all works out in the future,” Reid
said. “We can do better and need to go further in protecting Israel.” “We’ve got to get this done,” Reid said. “Leaving here with Israel being naked as they are, with these wildfires raging and a crisis at the border, it would be a shame if we did nothing.” http://www.politico.com/story/2014/07/israel-us-aid-hamas-harry-reid-109452.html A Congressional Research Service report in April said that the US had provided more than $700 million to Israel for Iron Dome. The latest bill would lift that to about $1 billion. Israel already receives billions of dollars of American taxpayers’ money each year. Under an existing 10-year aid agreement between Washington and Tel Aviv signed in 2007, $30 billion of American money is flowing to Israel. Over 1,000 people have been slaughtered and thousands wounded by one of the best armies in the world and we need to make sure this army gets stronger and more lethal. Israel is naked and needs more US taxpayer dollars to butcher more Palestinians. Where is the shame? Where is the decency? Where is the humanity? |
