Perhaps you’re talking about this one ... LOL ...

Israel has requested an additional $225 million in United States funding for the production of Iron Dome components, in light of the wide-scale use of the system during Operation Protective Edge.

In a letter to the leaders of both houses of Congress on Wednesday, U. S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hegel wrote that the Department of Defense “has reviewed and supports this urgent request.”

The additional funding, if granted, will increase Iron Dome funding from the U.S. to more than half-a-billion dollars in the current financial year.

Both houses, which previously doubled the Iron Dome allocation requested by the administration, are expected to accede to the request.

Even Obama can’t get in the way of this. Israel has strong support in Congress and on both sides of the aisle.

Congrats. You can post articles. It is your comments that reveal what information you seem to want conveyed. If you are a supporter of Israel, you are a very confused one.

So, are you going to answer the questions? Got family or friends in Gaza? Which side?
