Mike, I have never agreed with Israeli policies. The USA supplies 68% of the arms thst Israel buys. It does not supply 68% of Israel arms. Israel produces virtually all its arms, and the $3 billion that America pays is in exchange for advanced tech - military tech.

I support Israel in this instance only. That is because I have been folliwing Islamic terrorism since 1981 when I discovered it is South Africa. I ran into again in London in the late 90s.

There will never be a peace deal with Hamas. It is the height if naivity to believe that.
