Comment on How to recover Israel’s national honor and save the US taxpayer billions by Vic Rosenthal

Shalom:

I am not saying that Israel should break relations with the US or even stop cooperating in various ways (although I think the x-band radar in the Negev is a bad idea); only that Israel should use its own money.

If the PM and defense people don’t have an idea of whether the aid is important, then something is wrong that aid or no aid isn’t going to fix!

I don’t think the aid agreement is the reason for US criticism. The reason is that the present administration is anti-Israel and wants to attack us. The aid just makes it easier for them to do so. As far as defending us diplomatically, that is finished until the US gets a different president. Just yesterday Samantha Power cast doubt on the US vetoing a UNSC resolution “establishing parameters for a 2-state solution.”
