Really, what did he say?
Similar stuff to his dad, to wit he "support(s) Israel" but wants to end "welfare" to them.
I’m not singling out Israel. I support Israel. I want to be known as a friend of Israel, but not with money you don’t have . . . We can’t just borrow from our kids’ future and give it to countries, even if they are our friends. … I think they’re an important ally, but I also think that their per capita income is greater than probably three-fourths of the rest of the world . . . Should we be giving free money or welfare to a wealthy nation? I don’t think so.
Very insulting to Israel. You can't cut off friends while enemies remain so virulent, and especially now that Israel's getting surrounded by enemies thanks to the "Arab Spring Winter".

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the Rand Paul quote that you say is so damning. If you want to say that, then I think that you are attributing thoughts to the sentiments that simply are not there.

End ALL foreign aid NOW.

Nothing insulting in that. As a supporter of Israel myself, I agree that there should be no monetary aid, least of all using money borrowed from our kids. The good news is that if we cut off all aid to both Israel and the Moslems, it is Israel that will win.
