1. Not true, Israel spends 5.6% of it's total GDP on defence budget, making it the 2nd highest in the world, surpasing USA. 2. Israel develops more technology that is shared to the US than the US shares with Israel. America's support is mainly financial, part of it actually being the purchase of technologies. 3. Well, so is aid to Ukraine. I mean, deploying NATO troops is much more harmful to US-Russia relations than aid to Israel with any other nation. I mean, what country actually boycuts America for supporting Israel, even the gulf states no longer stand by Palestine - the 1973 oil crisis isn't going to repeat itself. 4. The Leahy Law allows the State Department along side the Department of Defence to declare which armed forces are in violation or not, meaning that the government is not in violation unless it decides it is in. Furthermore, Israel is not officially in possession of any nuclear weapons or nuclear reactors, making the Symington Amendment irrelevant.

@@klai123 Why should the United States pay for 40% of Israel's military budget while Israel runs a budget surplus?

🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷

The US does not. it's more like 17 %. That number can also only be used for certain things- mostly purchasing from the US. @@coreysmith8489
