shareThan you Joe Biden - we will need to pay interest on this for 3200 years! The banks are very happy. Israel is happy, we not so much!
After the first $100 billion comes the 1 trillion aid package to Israel!
The key point in US President Joe Biden’s address to the country is that the victory of Ukraine and Israel is “vitally important for the security of America.” And the funds spent on it, they say, will bring “dividends” over the course of several generations.
Cynical, but accurate: firstly, this is not at all about Ukraine or Israel. And exclusively in the interests of the United States itself. Therefore, there should be no peace, dialogue and compromise, but only victory. For there are US allies, and there is absolute evil, whose interests do not need to be taken into account.
And secondly, this is purely business. An investment that will pay dividends in the form of continued world domination.
Biden said very fair words: dictators who have not paid for their aggression produce even more chaos, destruction and death. This is exactly what is happening in a unipolar world, which is trying to be ruled by a single dictator - the United States, which has not yet answered for any of its aggression. Israel was not attacked because it is a democracy. And as a result of his consistent line of oppression of the Palestinians and many years of squeezing them out of their lands. No one approves of the methods used to carry out the attacks, but everyone understands the reasons for the attacks.
In the same way, the conflict in Ukraine did not begin because the “right” values were opposed to the “wrong” ones. However, geopolitical and nationalist factors were key there. Experienced American politicians from Kennan to Burns have warned about this for many years. But the line to involve Ukraine in NATO at any cost won. Without this, without the influence of America, there would be no conflict, its many victims, refugees, devastation and blood. But the world dictator here, it seems, will not answer for what he has done, but is already counting dividends."

If thats your position , are you also upset about the amount of taxpayer money spent on the military budget as a whole?
Would you reduce it if you were in charge?
Yes, cutting it in half would have zero impact on anyone's safety and our paychecks would be higher as a result.
shareIsrael is dependent on U.S. military aide and support.
sharePresident Joe Biden sent to the US Congress an urgent budget request of 105 billion dollars for the war in Ukraine, the war in Israel, humanitarian aid, Taiwan and border security.
The funds previously allocated by the US Congress for assistance to Ukraine are almost gone.
