>To be fair he would cut ALL foreign aid.

And, you know, I really don’t have a problem with that stance.
Those who raise the issue of Israel being God’s people should consider what Paul said wrote:
1 Timothy 5:8 — But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.

If this concept can be extended to a government whose “own house” would be its own Citizens, then they cannot legitimately argue that we-as-a-country should give monies {which we really don’t have} to Israel or anyone else.

The Scriptural case can also be made that Israel was rejected when they relied on foreigners instead of God.

However, there is also the reality that few, if any, nations would be willing to sell/grant advanced military tech to Israel and we also have Treaties with them that cannot simply be tossed overboard because they are inconvenient at the moment.
