    Under US procurement rules, every dollar is to be spent for designated material. In this case, probably for Iron Dome rocket motors which the US supplies. So far this year Hezbolah has launched 8,000 iranian rockets into Isreal, yesterday 300. To object to this is to leave the citizens of Isreal defenseless.

      Because Israel is an impoverished nation which can’t terrorise others without the US’s funding?

            Really? So you don’t want to leave them defenseless?

            You guys really are a bunch of cowards.

              You’re the coward for wanting to bomb civilians in the name of defense. Don’t hide behind morals.

                Well if you think what the Israeli do is morally wrong, then leaving them defenseless so they can be bombarded is morally wrong as well. But, don’t let me stop you from proving that logic. Please proceed.

                  Israel is capable of defending themselves. Nobody is asking to leave them defenseless. All everyone is asking is for an end to the bombing of gaza, and now even Lebanon.

                    Without the proper tools, defense is impossible. You are not everyone, though you play like you are. You simply want Israelis to die.

        But they’re not under this allocation and you know it. Yet you are sad and need to throw red meat to anyone that will listen.

      That’s a hilarious assumption when we’ve done this with everything up to and including 2,000 pound dumb bombs in the last year.
