Yeah, it always rankles you when the USA does something for Israel and MidEast peace.

Tuff luck bub!!!
As long as we crave MidEast oil it will be in our interests to have peace in the MidEast.

As long as we crave MidEast oil it will be in our interests to have peace in the MidEast.

And we'll have neither oil nor peace giving all our support to those who have neither.

There are various estimates of what we've given Israel but a reasonable middle amount is 90 billion. That amount can be doubled to cover interest payments on the debt (if you think that's too much, check your mortgage payments). A very healthy portion of the national debt is due to our obsession with Israel.

By the way, watch that hubris. You've been winning a lot lately but it may not go on forever. Then you'll want to be able to play the anti-semitic card.

You notice I've said nothing about dual-loyalty, mostly because I question if it is dual. But I'll let you speak for yourself:

I am Jewish and am interested in seeing Israel prosper and do well in the face of Arab intimidation and possible war. I don't worry so much about Americans since life is a bit too comfortable here.
