They are saying they cannot verify the number not that nothing isn’t occurring I am speaking in generalities especially for Americans.
US support for Israel is not unconditional and it didn't begin 80 years ago. The US embargo on arms exports to the Middle East during Israel's war of independence was a major blow to the new state. Israel had to fight against five Arab armies - one of them armed, trained, and led by the British (Jordan) - with old Soviet weapons smuggled from Czechoslovakia. Israel was the only country in the world that agreed to help the US defend Jordan from the PLO-Syria alliance against the Hashemites, in the 70s. That's when the US understood not only that Israel is here to stay, but that it can be a very useful ally in a troubled region. We don't get those billions just because, you know. https://www.washingtoninstitute.org...benefits-why-us-israeli-alliance-good-america And there are other benefits, not mentioned in the article. Like the Italian cherry tomatoes so popular in the US. The original Italian cherry tomatoes are not suitable for export. What you eat in the US was developed by Israeli researchers. DiskOnKey (USB flash drive) is an Israeli invention. Waze was developed in Israel. PillCam is Israeli. The list goes on. Thank you for your unconditional support. I'm sorry you're hurt, but keep in mind that one of your own - a non-Jewish New Yorker - is saying that NYC is no longer safe for Jews. I'm just the messenger, don't shoot me.
You know only thing we American want to hear from Israelis is “ thank you”. Unfortunately you can’t even give simple “thank you”. All this crap about Israelis helped US with this and that is full of BS. USB flash drive developed by Israelis , so what? Are we American getting USB flash drive for free? Israelis research developed it and computer company produce it. it’s call capitalism. I like Basmati Rice grown in Pakistan. Does that mean I should be ‘ grateful” to Pakistan. I pay for the rice. You know the iron dome, which was successful last week against Iranian rocket attack, those anti-missile system not only built by American company, but donated to Israel. As I have said in my last post, 8% Israeli defense budge is US aid to Israel. Only thing we want to hear from Israelis – Thank you.
First Jim Crow laws and now this. Anti-black racism isn't enough for these blue villians, now they want to revive hitler methods. Many of them even proudly chant things about a "final solution" This is good for america, these bigots and haters must be EXPOSED
They probably never even heard of those other riots. They don't really talk about them on their most respected news source - THE VIEW
Can you show me the recent 2024 footage of them protesting and chanting death to iran or death to gaza? I'm sure since so many are calling for it this should be super easy to find. I'll tell you what, you even get all of 2023 to select from. On your marks...............get set.................GO!!!!!
Just like they don't talk about the over 200 arrest and the injured police officers and all of the destroyed property in Washington DC on Trump's inauguration Day in 2017.
Which bit of "right here on this forum" do you not understand? Actually, one of them has given a like to your post!
Perhaps rank-and-file Americans would be happy with a simple "thank you" from Israel, but your administrations and your representatives demand a lot more. American help comes with a price tag attached. It's being used to pressure Israel (and other recipients). Pakistan did not invent Basmati Rice, it grows anyway. Funny that you mention Pakistan though. From 2002 to 2010, the United States gave Pakistan almost $19 billion—an average of more than $2 billion per year— primarily for counterterrorism operations. Remember who found shelter in Pakistan during this period? Yet nobody in your country has ever shouted "death to Pakistan". Odd, that. I didn't say you should be grateful to Israel. My point was that Israel is not just a passive recipient of aid. The Iron Dome was designed by Israeli scientists and built entirely in Israel, with partial US funding. It uses Tamir missiles designed and built in Israel. The developer, Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, partnered with Raytheon to develop the American version of the Iron Dome, the SkyHunter. https://www.rtx.com/raytheon/what-w... interest by the U.S.,the U.S. and its allies.
Even though the press says students most of them aren't. Fifty-seven people were arrested at the campus, the Texas Tribune reports, citing a Travis County sheriff's spokesperson, while UT Austin said that 26 of those arrested were not affiliated with the college.
