don't tell me that tax writeoffs by major weapons manufactures and huge amounts for research and testing(not to mention wars used for sales) don't help ALL those buying weapons from our corporations.. Isreal is in the mix, whether they are strictly buying, selling, researching, testing or whatever with our international coroporations is irrelevant to me when we are talking billions.

Then isn't it discrimination to take Israel "out of the mix" and single them out?????
Israel buys arms from the United States, as do many other nations, including Arabic states. It's called Foriegn Miltary Financing, and it goes towards creating billions of dollars in revenue for the US each year. This means 74% of aid must be spent in the US to generate profits and create jobs.
