jerry of ny. your jewish lies and israeli loyalty have made americans disgusted. It is jews like yourself who seek to push american boys and girls to invade iran and come back in bodybags on behalf of your country israel. that third world toilet and its loyalists in our country are the biggest threat to our AMERICAN CHRISTIAN way of life and values.page 140 of the 9-11 commission report states the reason we were attacked was our support for israels occupation and murder of palestinians in the eyes of al queida. the coordinated lie of "they hate our freedon" by the 93 percent jewish owned media in order to hide the real reason we were attacked was nothing less than treason. if jews want to invade iran they should recruit from the yeshivas and jewish day schools and synagogues that litter our country.google dancing israelis 9/11.

Those comments you must be with the skin heads, nazi party, or Iranian. You definately are not of soud mind. To group all people of a religion in 1 category is beyond absurd.

Calling them vermin probably HAMAS either way your way of thinking wouldnt be tolerated in any civil society. You should get out of il. and move to a more suitable atmosphere. You definatley are an idiot, a biggot, and a pig.

You dont deserve the air you breath is a waiste of Oxygen. The world is moving on get with it or get out.

When you own the US Congress you can be as brutal as you want..

the Legendary Bill of NY 10:42PM July 07, 2010

The article you cite (from 2002) states that Israel receives 3 billion a year in direct aid. Other aid take the form of loan guarantees. A loan guarantee is not the same as direct aid. Loan guarantees only becomes aid when if an when the client defaults. Israel has never defaulted on a loan or missed a payment. The article you cite actually verifies the reality of direct aid versus loan guarantees.

Further, unlike other recipients of US foreign aid, Israel spends virtually all of the aid she receives here in the US. That translates to tens of thousands of jobs here in the US.Congress approves those aid packages because they know Israel will recycle the money back into our economy.

Since we're talking about money, consider this: After Canada, Israel has the largest number of high tech companies on NASDAQ. American investors, including pension funds over the last few decades, have made trillions of dollars trading in those companies.That number of course is misleading_ American companies by the thousands have integrated Israeli technology and research into their own endeavors, increasing the amount of income to American shareholders and to the US Treasury by way of taxes paid.

The examples are legion.The benefits of the US-Israel relationship are staggering.

researchok of NC 9:57PM July 07, 2010

"According to the USAID Greenbook, which quantifies all U.S. overseas loans and grants from 1946 through 2008, Israel has received over $34 billion from the United States, since 1951."

Somebody should do their math again because there is no way in hell that the US has given only 34 bil to Israel.

According to the Christian Science Monitor, the cost of Israel to the American taxpayer has been over $1.6 TRILLION since 1973.

And this is a figure I'm more comfortable with. Everybody knows that the US government lies thru their teeth and much more so when it comes to all matters Israel.
