[quote:Anonymous Coward 71304642:MV80MDIwMzU5XzcyNzk3MDE0XzdCMzU2NkQ2] The US gives Egypt the same amount as Israel every year as a part of Camp David Accords in '78 and no one says a thing about Egypt. Then the US also gives money to other Arab countries surrounding Israel. Pretty much all of it goes to military contracts and weapons. At least the US should stop supplying all of Israel's enemies also. But then the argument goes if we don't do it then someone else will. For all the Israel hater's on this forum I wonder if they realize around 70 percent of their extremely high taxes goes to the Arabs in welfare and freebies across their small nation and in Gaza and west of the Jordan river. Israel sends in around 20 truck loads a day of free stuff for Gaza and basically gives them free electricity and water which the in turn try to sabotage and destroy as to blame Israel for their suffering to get the world to sympathize with their plight. Pathetic. [/quote]

But I also know that there have been people leading on this for a long time, like Congresswoman [Betty] McCollum.”
Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) went on to describe Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a “Trump-like figure” following his announced plans to formally annex Jewish settlements on the West Bank....
