Israel is the largest cumulative recipient of U.S. foreign assistance since World War II. To date, the United States has provided Israel $150 in bilateral assistance and missile defense funding since the country’s founding in 1948. Nearly all of U.S. bilateral aid to Israel is in the form of military assistance. In fiscal year 2022 the Biden administration requested $3.8 billion in military aid for Israel.

@9B585CM3yrs3Y
No, Israel is an apartheid state and must be internationally pressured and cut off from aid
@B6W7P8V 1mo1MO
Yes, but we should not automatically support every possibly extreme thing that an Israeli government decides to do.
@B5SGYRG4mos4MO
Yes, but the way Israel has unfairly treated Palestinian citizens must be scrutinised and be held accountable for it.
@9WHGW2LRepublican12mos12MO
With threats in the middle east, Like Iran Hezbollah Yemen,And every terrorist organiztion, Untied states is against so I believe if we give israel military aid to fight against terrorist organizations with American help there will be peace.
@9SFZLS21yr1Y
We should support the Israelis to the extent that they can defend themselves against outside threats and urge them to be a responsible actor in the region, while also supporting the welfare of the Palestinian people in providing them supplies (Medical, food, etc.) and ensuring that Hamas does not gain more popularity.
We should continue to support Israel, but with limitations. They are justified to fight their war with Hamas. They are not, however, fighting it justly. I would support cutting back support until they resort to more just means. Furthermore, we should support the creation of a Palestinian state, and support its harmony with Israel and other states in the region.
@9KD24HD2yrs2Y
We should be neutral as we have no strategic interest and Israel is perfectly capable of taking care of themselves.
@9JHVLDDIndependent2yrs2Y
The conflict between Israel and Palestine is extremely complicated, however the US government should work to reduce the amount of bloodshed, and provide humanitarian support for both sides.
@9VT7RK512mos12MO
Continue to support Israel's sovereignty, but decrease military funding and increase humanitarian aid.
@9479RK23yrs3Y
Yes, with serious restraints on Israel's human rights behaviors.
No, Israel consistently violates human rights
@8T9L9664yrs4Y
This is too complicated for a multiple choice
@8SXS8Z9Libertarian4yrs4Y
We should remain neutral with no foreign aid to either side
@8NMVMWF5yrs5Y
We should give them less at least.
@8HQQQP25yrs5Y
we should be supporting the men and women and children that lost their land and homes to Israel. we should be supporting the state of Palestine and its people.
@8CSW6PHRepublican5yrs5Y
Politically support, but not financially
@8CBJQ2ZRepublican5yrs5Y
Yes but be very careful specially if they start annexing more land and the international community doesn’t recognize the annexation or if they start colluding with our enemies like Russia or China.
Yes as long as the human rights abuses are stopped.
@999S7933yrs3Y
Yes, but we need to talk about how they treat Palestinians.
@995XWGS3yrs3Y
No, we should declare war on Israel and overthrow their state
@8T3FSH84yrs4Y
Yes and No, we should not give aid to any foreign nations, cut all support and aid, all foreign forms of welfare should be cut off. We are $20 trillion in debt and have no business borrowing money to fund other countries and with more aid and support but respect Israel’s sovereignty and do not dictate how it should interact with its neighbors and increase funding in order to move our embassy to Jerusalem
