Since so much of OUR money goes to Israel, shouldn't we bear some guilt?

[Philosoraptor]

Some will argue that our tax dollars are NOT supporting Israel's war against its neighbors, even though we give them billions every year.

Should we bear some of the guilt since we supply all the world with all the weapons they could ever want?

Or are we somehow magically not guilty by association?

1. Yes definitely!

It's time for us to stop financing Israel Regine of terror.

[teryang]

2. Actually, the bombs and war machines go to Israel, the money..

...goes from the treasury to the defense contractors and never really leaves the US.

[Virginia Dare]

3. Of course we do...

we've provided the vast majority of the fuel for this fire, and it will come back to haunt all of us. We have supported an unsustainable policy for a long time.

[mom cat]

4. We share a lion's share of the guilt.

[ForrestGump]

5. Yes

And this fact is not lost on terrorists (or whatever label various of Israel's antagonist groups might have earned) with ties to that area, as if we weren't already making all sorts of new friends as a result of US military adventures in Iraq.

6. In the eyes of the Muslim world you can bet we will pay a hefty price.

9-11 many times over.

In this instance we gave the Israelis 'the green light'.

Fucking A we're guilty.
