(1,418 posts)under the bush administration, congress passed (with little to no debate) the largest ten year financial aid package in history for Israel. safe to assume some of this money is used to buy weapons, some of which are used against extremists.
I seriously doubt the amount of money we are giving to the Palestinians comes close to the amount given Israel-- a wealthy nation which hardly needs "financial aid".
