United States Aid to Israel: Funding the Occupation
Israel is a funded state. Despite its own relatively healthy economy, it continues to receive aid from the US, in disproportion to both the country’s population and needs.
The financial aid alone that Israel receives from the US allows it to purchase tanks, helicopter gunships, F-16 war planes, machine guns and bullets – all of which it uses to commit human rights violations against the Palestinian people on a daily basis. When it is not possible for the Israeli government to use the funds directly on military expenditure, their use elsewhere frees up other Israeli government funds to pay for military salaries, services and facilities.

the United Stated, with their tax dollars, supports fatal military attacks on innocent civilians and children in Palestine. It doesn't matter who they want to hurt ultimately. The fact is they are killing innocents.
We are guilty, we are culpable. In the same measure Palestinians and terrorists be damned for their murderous acts, we are responsible for taking innocent lives and perpetuating violence.
