Please take a few moments to read the following sections on the website, it is pretty short. It SHOULD be shocking to americans how much america unilaterally and unthinkingly throws allegiance to Israel. It SHOULD be. (IMO, I believe congress and the president are determined to lie america into another Iraq-fiasco, this time in Iran. But I am sure americans won't swallow that tripe a second time, right Buzz? . . . )

Text of S. 2165 (112th): United States-Israel Enhanced Security Cooperation Act of 2012 (Passed Congress version) - GovTrack.usEdited by dronester, : clarity

Insane, hateful pieces of shit would neither consider BILLIONS of direct aid to Israel as enough or the fact that america is ILLEGALLY supplying military aid to a massive human rights violator (using US arms and weapons, like phosphorus bombs, on civilians. Former UN General Assembly President Miguel D'Escoto Brockmann described these actions as genocide) as enough . . .

Section 116 of the Foreign Assistance Act (FAA) states, "No assistance may be provided under this part to the government of any country which engages in a consistent pattern of gross violations of internationally recognized human rights." 22 U.S.C. 2304(a)

​

Section 4 of the Arms Export Control Act prohibits selling military equipment to countries that use them for non-self-defense purposes.

​

The U.S. State Department determined in February 2001 that Israel has committed each of the acts that the law defines as "gross violations of internationally recognized human rights, including torture or cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment, prolonged detention without charges and trial, causing the disappearance of persons by the abduction and clandestine detention of those persons, and other flagrant denials of the right to life, liberty, or the security of person." It described Israeli army use of live ammunition against Palestinians when soldiers were not in impending danger as "excessive use of force."

However, Israeli army engages daily in degrading and inhumane treatments towards Palestinians, such as prolonged detention without charges, strip searches at checkpoints, beatings, torture, and home demolitions. According to Amnesty International, Israel is the only country that legalizes torture.

​

In 2001, the US State Department described the actions of Israeli army against Palestinians as an "excessive use of force," referring to the use of live ammunition when soldiers were not in a pending danger. This clearly shows that the US does not agree with the way these weapons are being used against Palestinians, yet the US military aid to Israel continues consistently as agreed between both countries.
