I'm sure everyone has seen the footage floating around of missiles hitting Israel.
All I have to say is that, when it's all over, I hope there's nobody left on either side still capable of shaking down the US for "aid".
Yeah, I know, it'll never happen. But one must remain optimistic.
I think you must have missed or misinterpreted the "shaking down" bit.
And even without it, one person robbing another and then "giving" it to a third (with kickbacks to the family and friends of the original thief) isn't exactly "giving a dollar to a beggar."
yeah i know, but i mean, you could cut out all the foreign aid, but washington would still find a way to launder that money to themselves and benefit the same people in the end
