US gave $3 billion in military aid to Israel in 2011.
That is about $384 for each of the 8 million people in Israel. It’s about $10 for each of the 310 million men, women and children in the USA, or about $20 for every tax paying adult in the USA. I wonder does this gift violate the First Amendment which says: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion”by helping the people of Israel create a Jewish theocracy in the land they stole from the Arabs? I got the $3 billion figure from an article in the Feb 6, 2012 issue of Time magazine titled “Can Israel stop Iran’s nuke effort?” which was on page 32. I got the population of Israel from Wikipedia which says the population of Israel is 7,798,600 people as of September 2011 |
