As the world's largest exporter of weapons, Isreal is one ofour many primary buyers. They are our primary buyer, mostly because its the only democratic nation in all of the Middle East, and we just don't want them to be oppressed again.The U.S. government has recognized and subsidized the State of Israel for more than 50 years. According to an article in the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, October 1996. p. 44, America has spent more than $5 billion in one year alone in direct and indirect aid. That is almost 13.5 million a day - 365 days a year!
I'd like to see proof of this. And its actually britin's fault, mostly because they dumped the Isrealies there (mostly due to preconcived notions that all Jews are Zionists) and gave the land, which wasn't theirs in the first place, IIRC, to the Jews. They've been fighting Egypt and inhabitants they displaced ever since.Because the "Holocaust" is claimed to have been a factual historical occurrence, commonly called "genocide" targeting Jews, and thus entitling Israel to special consideration and protection among nations.
Covert? What the fuck are you talking about. We've always been doing this, and anyone who doesn't know is an idiot. And the Marshall paln was a temprary method of keeping East Berlin from starving when the Soviets blockaded it. I don't know how long the BErlin Airlift lasted, but it certianly wasn't 40 years.For half a century, hundreds of billions of US dollars in money and technology, in overt and covert aid of various forms, have been transferred to Israel from U.S. government and private sources since the founding of Israel. According to an article by Donald Neff (Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, Jan-Feb. 1997, p. 74) :
". . . the (US) aid program to Israel has amounted to the largest voluntary transfer of wealth and technology in history, far more than all American aid given to rehabilitate Western Europe under the Marshall Plan after World War II."
Because your an idiot?Why?
This'll be good...Because of massive, systematic, repetitive media hype of World War II atrocity propaganda, familiar to the Western world, which claims the following:
So far so good.* The Jews living in Europe prior to WW II were innocent and loyal citizens of the nations in which they lived -
* Without cause, Hitler and the Germans hated them and made them scapegoats for Germany's problems -
Hitler was an anti-semitic, just like you. A lot of the people didn't like the Jews either (dating back to the middle ages), and there have been studies that show that people still don't like them.
* Hitler and the National Socialists designed a systematic and institutionalized program to exterminate all the Jews in the world, beginning with German-occupied Europe -
Yep.
* Homicidal gas chambers were built and used by the Germans specifically for this purpose -
Yep.
* Six million Jews and five million non-Jews were exterminated, mainly by gassing, and their bodies were completely consumed in large crematory facilities and outdoor cremation pits and ovens, to dispose of the "evidence of genocide."
Yep.
True or false, the "Holocaust" story has had, and continues to have, big historical, political and financial ramifications. After the war, it was used to marshal popular support for establishing the state of Israel, and to turn the German people in the minds of many Americans into a nation of genocidal maniacs - see sweeping accusations by Theodore Kaufman, Steven Spielberg, Daniel Goldhagen, Elie Wiesel etc. - and to this day the "Holocaust" story is used to lend moral and political legitimacy to Israel, permitting the U.S. Congress to vote huge taxpayer-funded subsidies (outright grants as well as interest and loan guarantees) to the State of Israel to the tune of at least $13.5 million a day - 365 days a year![/quote]
No it hasn't. The reason aid is going to Isreal has already been explained, so I'm not going to bother mentioning it again. As to your brainless commentary about how much money goes to Isreal, I'm to lazy to check. Would you mind suppling actaul budget figures?
And that's where I drop out. I can't take that much bullshit, outright and unadulterated.
