Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah have vowed to literally murder every Israeli flesh by flesh.
US can’t do nothing.
I traveled in a more extreme Muslim area before and you cannot go against them. Its a death sentence.

Military aid I’m guessing means paying US companies to provide weapons/vehicles. News should report overall how much the U.S. has given US companies that make military weapons instead of saying aid to Israel or Ukraine.

Iraq and Afghanistan forever wars left very big shoes to fill. Thanks to Ukraine and Israel the shareholders of Raytheon and Lockheed Martin can sleep easy at night.

Quite cheap fighting Iran and its proxies with a single US soldier’s boot in the ground.

Good. Strike Iran

This might be a dumb question, but why can’t the aid be paid for by Israel (and Ukraine), but in like deferred installments?
This would show support and solidarity without asking another country to literally foot the bill for your apparent and pressing need to fight a war, right?
Seems odd to me, but so does billions in subsidies to Big Oil *for researching alternative fuels*. 🤷

I’m not sure why this is big news. We have given 10 times that amount to Ukraine, who was not exactly the most reliable ally before Russia invaded.

Meanwhile, the republicans want to let Putin have his way with Ukraine.

It’s a crazy situation that doing nothing would be preferable to what we are doing.

As a US taxpayer, I approve, and so do most taxpayers. Israel has widespread bipartisan support.

Aid to Israel should continue and will continue because the vast majority of Americans support it.
Good fight against jihadists who are telling everyone they want to destroy the USA. Should be giving more
Please Sir, can I have some healthcare?
This is both good economic and good military policy.
1) Most of the spending ends up in the pockets of Americans. This isn’t just sending piles of cash to other countries.
2) Just like Ukraine vs. Russia, this is really a pretty efficient way to damage our adversaries without actually putting our own soldiers at risk.
