they eat that stuff up in UDist, Fremont and Ballard. no same reasonable politician could hope to be elected in any of those neighborhoods.

BTW, I’m not sure what “aid” she is referring to. I wasn’t aware we gave stuff to Israel. We do have joint development
on military programs. But those are business arrangements not “aid”.

I’m not up to date on current aid to Israel.

In the past, Israel was the number one recipient of USA aid, almost entirely military aid, going back many decades.

I have always supported that aid.

Israel is a reliable friend, and she lives in a very dangerous and strategically important neighborhood.

Egypt, going back almost 40 years, used to consistently be the number two recipient.

From memory, the USA-Israel-Egypt aid arrangement was put in place after Israel agreed to withdraw from the Sinai and return it to Egypt.
