An article from India just 3 days ago, so no bias.

The USA economy is still 50% larger than second place China.

just to clarify things, the money that Israel gets is not a hand out technically, its in the form of loan guarantees by the president, at least that was the case around 10 years ago when they were co-signed for $9 billion.
this is often mistaken for the handouts that are given to the Palestinians.
i know it all sucks.
the Ayotola's days are now numbered, amd the US should go in and either take over the oil fields or blow them up.
this was a bad move today by the Iranians, the Israeli's are pretty nasty.

The enemies of the USA and Israel are taking advantage of a brain-dead president who recently threatened Israel with something if they didn't change their ways in Gaza.
Imagine thinking Iran and everyone else isn't going to try and take advantage of this.
And imagine Trump threatening Israel with anything...never would happen.
Elections have consequences.
We see it at the southern border everyday
And now we see it in the Middle East
Good job Democrats...everyone - keep voting DEMOCRAT!

Ukraines has gotton 4x as much from us as Israel.
Since 2021, Greece has gotton 16 billion from the EU.
Israel 3 billion from us.
Guess Israel is not all that dependent.
Whicj bordering countries are calling for death to Greece ans launching repeated attacks over the years again?

Israel had a relation with Turkey, a long time Greek advisory, until around 1995, now Israel has backed off, but the Greeks never loved Israel for that main reason.
no matter which country you live in this big world, your head gets filled up with propaganda and really effects the way you think.

Just heard on FOX that Biden is going to bed right after speaking with Netanyahu. No national address. No nothing. Nighty night Joe.
Meanwhile, Trump started a rally at 7:30 in PA and addressed the Middle East.
What a pathetic loser we have at the helm.

Biden has actually lost support with Arab-Americans and political allies because of his unrelenting support of Israel during this war, but now you have him “threatening” Israel with “something”, and that explains why Iran is attacking now
Iran launched this strike in retaliation of Israel’s deadly strike on its consulate a couple weeks ago. It was coming whether Biden had a “pointed conversation” with Netanyahu or not.
And it’s hilarious you think Trump would never throw shade on Israel.

And throw in some southern border shit despite Trump killing the bipartisan border deal, and well, that’s the cherry on your shameless sundae

Poor boy. You seem to be getting more riled up as the election approaches. Don't worry, we won't recommend reeducation camps for your kind as you wished upon us.

It's interesting that MTO would post about Biden losing support among Arab-Americans over Israel.
Israel has been a very important ally of the United States for decades...and one of the few in that area of the world.
Iran...the Palestinians...and a whole bunch of other countries in the middle east, not so much.
So why would Arab-Americans not support an ally of the USA?
Dumb question, I know...but a telling one.

They are mostly terrorists. Just look at Tliab. She's terrorist if I've ever seen one. Does anyone have any doubt that she would support another terror attack on the USA if it was carried out by a Palestianian? She has the Palestinian flag proudly displayed outside her office door.

Actually it’s more telling how Israel has lost broad support of this war, not just among arab-Americans. Seems folks in general tend to get a bad taste in their mouths when they get a steady diet of dead kids and war crimes footage in their social media feeds.
