Access to Mossad intelligence for one.
This is somewhat true, but more importantly, Israel will torture to get what they want....and since that is absolutely appalling to our government, we just pay someone else to do it. They'll also assassinate, and make enemies disappear. There's also the possibility that we aren't really paying them for intel, or giving them aid, but paying them to keep them from nuking all of their neighbors, and kicking everyone's ass. Which is actually pretty stupid, because this war is cost to many lives, and to many dollars, and it needs to stop!
I tried to rep you Rey, but it wouldn't let me. You are a 100% correct. We have more people in this country living below the poverty, thenwe should, but we can afford to help Africa, and Israel?! THAT'S BULLSHIT! The part that confuses me the most is this...in the past, every time we've had a war, the economy exploded, and jobs were there for the choosing...but now, what...at least a decade latter, we're STILL circling the drain, and more people then ever are unemployed.
