In case you think we just write a blank check to Israel, this is where the money goes - back here to the US. So it’s really a program for American military contractors, which is why both parties support it. In this case, Boeing is in Washington state, so even though both senators are Democrats, they’re not going to want to put their constituents out of work.
This has nothing to do with AIPAC. We do this because it benefits us. Meanwhile, we’re sending even more money to Europe, and none of that is spent back here unless those countries decide to buy American. If you’re going to complain about foreign military aid, at least be consistent.
