What's with the foreign aid freeze except for Israel (obviously) and Egypt too?
posted 1 year ago by subbookkeeper 1 year ago by subbookkeeper +50 / -0

Why Egypt? Is it because they enforce the southern border to Gaza? Or does Egypt have it's own version of Aipac?

Why Egypt?

To protect Israel. Since the end of the Yom-Kippur war Egypt is being paid off by the US.

A decent guess is that they bent the knee in some way.

The Israelies by signing a frankly unfavorable ceasefire(although frankly everyone involved is a retarded sand rat as far as I'm concerned), something that was a campaign promise he was shown to keep before even being sworn in. The Egyptians are probably tied to that in some capacity.

Egypt isn't officially on unfavorable terms with the US and a functional Egypt is a good thing in the current ME.

Israel is just going to keep using the money for weapons funding.

It's hard to keep track if this is Trump as 2 days ago we were complaining that foreign aid was being suspended for all BUT Ukraine and Israel and just yesterday it was announced Ukrainian aid was being suspended.

So who knows, despite the naysayers, maybe Israel gets added too..

Thinking there's even a slight possibility Zion Don is going to close valve for his masters is more retarded than your japanese simping.

It's just because you're stupid and unthinking.

If there was a good diplomatic, economic, or strategic reason to suspend it, he'd do it. In reality, despite my opposition to Israel getting any foreign aid, there's no reason to burn those bridges that he just made.

You calling someone stupid is quite funny, especially when your stance here is that a man who is the self proclaimed ''most pro israhell man alive'', with numerous jews marrying into his family, on top of his daughter converting, is going to after decades finally cut israhell's funding, you're quite a scholar.

The problem here is that you can't tell the difference between jews, judaism, and Israel. You are too blind to understand the distinction because you need something to blame for your personal failures.

Probably something to do with Miriam Adelson giving his campaign 100 million dollars.

And Adelson getting a second row seat behind retired US presidents on inauguration day.

You mean Egypt and Jordan kiss the ring so Israel doesn't get bombed. Israel would be in a pretty fucking dire position if Egypt and Jordan become openly hostile.

We're paid off Egypt for decades. It's to stop them from attacking israel.

After Turkey and Israel, Egypt is the biggest military power in the Middle East? It's also a powder keg ready to explode with Islamic extremists ready to seize power. In addition to being right right next to Israel. It's also adjacent to Libya (resource rich powder keg) and Sudan (resource rich powder keg).

If they say "except israel and only israel" it's really pointing out israel's special status.

If they add in 1 or 2 more countries it's less blatant...who the other countries are doesn't really matter.
