Kek. The US Republican can't stop shooting itself in the foot, even as its Israeli ally is crying for help. If I am Netanyahu, I'll get new allies.
Don't think Israel needs any help.
... except for the annual aid they already get from the US?
What % of Israel's budget do you think the US gives them?
Of that % how much do you think is tied to purchases of American weapons?
Apparently the US gives military grants that amount to about 16% of Israel's total military budget. That's kind of a lot, if I'm reading it correctly.
IIRC it's a bit less than that, something like 3b of 36b.
To allow the US easy access to intelligence, operational bases and feeding the military industrial complex, that's really not a ton of cash for the US...
In the massacre? No. In general? Its kinda their meal ticket
