Is US aid money to Israel used to build jewish settlements in disputed lands in the West Bank?

If so, why doesn't the US stop this money flow?


It's funny how we claim to be anti-terrorist, even though we support Israel, isn't it?

obama gave a speech to AIPAC during the campaign which he promised to up the $15 billion we give them to $30 billion, needless to say a portion of this money goes to new settlements

i hope so!

Israel has every right to build and live on their land.

The U.S backs Israel. We will stop the money flow to them when muslims stop bombing their cities on a daily basis.

Israel is our ally. We fund our allies and help them out if they need it. If they need to build stuff on their land then that's fine. If they need bigger bombs then that's fine too.

No. US aid money goes to the Israeli government for defense purposes. So A- the settlements are actually frozen right now by the Israeli government so they aren't supporting any building. any building is done by private citizens/organizations and B- again, the aid money is given for defense, it does not go to the housing department. in fact, most of the money is actually used to buy weapons and fighter planes from the US

No, but I'm sure US aid money to Hamas goes towards terrorism, ironic ain't it?
