Every Israeli Prime Minister for decades have burdened America with their “wantonness” of erecting settlements that have literally caused the break down in any breakthrough as it pertains to Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian people.
I am all for America’s firm stand in protecting Israel, but it is incomprehensible for Israel to even try to justify in any manner whatsoever, that “FORTY-THREE YEARS” of occupation can be overlooked.
We in the United States are facing surmountable challenges on all fronts, especially dealing with the terrorism issues that are costing us in the lost lives of our dedicated Soldiers and are hindering our financial stability. To create some form of sanity we must try to get the Arab Countries on board in a meaningful manner, but this is not possible when Israel continues to just take us for granted, using our money to expand settlements that have always been the “spade” in any cohesive, coherent and amicable settlement between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
Israel is the largest recipient of America’s foreign aid, THREE BILLION DOLLARS ANNUALLY.” It is high time that we tighten the “purse” strings in order to cause Israel to be concerned about us, like we are about them!
In this life, “you can’t have your cake and eat it too!
