President Barack Obama Gave Israel The Iron Dome. by luckihy: 3:25pm On Apr 19 |
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama signed a bill Monday granting an additional $225 million in U.S. taxpayer dollars for Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system. The defense system has been highly effective in the current round of violence between Israel and Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip. It allows Israel’s military to shoot down incoming rockets or mortars headed toward major population centers in Israel. Israeli officials say it has a success rate as high as 90 percent. The U.S. has provided hundreds of millions of dollars for Iron Dome in the past. The new package is intended to replenish Israel’s capabilities. Congress approved the money last week before lawmakers left for their annual summer break. Obama signed the bill in the late afternoon in the Oval Office with a handful of photographers present.

I remember a lot of people were calling Obama all kinds of derogatory names. But throughout his 8 years in office , he funded the development and advancement of the Iron Dome. |

Dream25: I just dey look them This present day Israelis are Mostly mixed blood European and American Jews , present day Israel is just an annex of Europe and America that's why whenever the war breaks out European and American governments fall over themselves to please the Israelis because of pressure from Jews who hold double citizenship and in America they have the strongest lobby in Washington that has bought almost the whole of the american political establishment. Even settlement expansion can't be stopped because most settlers have American citizenship. Why did the Europeans hate Jews? Knowing this will help you understand the issues . Europeans feel guilty for the way they treated the Jews especially Germans that's why they give this blanket support in the hope it will wash away historical injustices against the Jews. The creation of Israel is an antisemitic move, it was seen as a solution to the Jewish problem in Europe |
Re: President Barack Obama Gave Israel The Iron Dome. by Difrent: 2:09am On Apr 21 |
Oduduwapigs: Israel and USA relationship is rooted in an oxymoron called Christian Zionism. Christianity and Zionism are poles apart But the evangelicals in America were the first to even moot the idea of a homeland for Jews in the believe that if Jesus is to come back it is to Israel so a state of Israel must exist for Christ to come back. So long as this belief exists , America will always support Israel |

Lawag3: After wandering for centuries certainly most Jews now are mixed blood but you can still find real Jews in Israel and Palestine |
Re: President Barack Obama Gave Israel The Iron Dome. by Lawag3: 10:48am On Apr 21 |
Difrent: I agree some may be mixed but still they are Jew's upon all their wandering they preserved their language and culture. |
