Israel is doing pretty well to secure that much support from the US.... but it is over 10 years, not in one lump sum, so $3.8 thousand million per year, up from $3.1 under the previous 10 year deal.

Under the agreement, Israel's ability to spend part of the funds on Israeli military products will be gradually phased out, eventually requiring all of the funds to be spend on American military industries. Israel's preference for spending some of the funds internally had been a major sticking point in the deal.

Maintaining Israel's qualitative military edge over its neighbours and regional opponents, while also boosting the US military industrial complex. Seems fair enough to me. It will also help keep Israel under American control if Israel is forced to buy American military hardware with it. It is better for America if its clients do not have their own sovereign military industrial complexes.

The US and Israel have agreed on a $38 billion military aid package over the next 10 years. Junior officials will sign the pact Wednesday. The deal will become the biggest pledge of US military assistance to another country in history.
The new aid package will see Israel receive $3.8 billion per year from Washington, an increase of $700 million from the current $3.1 billion, sources told Reuters. However, the figure fell short of the annual $4.5 billion that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had been seeking.

Though Israel had previously expressed willingness to wait for the US elections before signing the deal, Netanyahu's government suddenly reversed its position and agreed to the US proposal.

The terms of the deal, which is classed as a memorandum of understanding (MOU), will include money for Israel’s missile defense program. This had previously been funded by Congress on an informal basis.

The existing arrangement allowed Israel to spend just over a quarter of the aid given by Washington on weapons from its domestic defense industry. Under the new terms, that will be phased out gradually over the next decade.

However the new MOU will not be signed between President Barack Obama and Netanyahu, who have had a frosty relationship due to the US leader’s support for last year’s Iranian nuclear deal, which was bitterly opposed by Israel. Lower-ranking officials will sign the paperwork, as has been the case with previous deals.

The plan for an increase in military aid to Israel has enjoyed strong support in Congress. In April, 83 US Senators – 51 Republicans and 32 Democrats – sent a letter to the White House urging an increase in financial support. The effort was spearheaded by South Carolina Republican Lindsey Graham and Delaware Democrat Chris Coons.

“In light of Israel's dramatically rising defense challenges, we stand ready to support a substantially enhanced new long-term agreement to help provide Israel the resources it requires to defend itself and preserve its qualitative military edge,” the letter said.

It is believed that Netanyahu agreed to the deal before November’s US presidential election to avoid uncertainties surrounding what will happen when the new leader takes office.

Not everyone has been impressed with the military aid package set to be signed between the two allies. A Washington DC non-profit group is suing the US government, challenging its authority to provide Israel with foreign aid and arguing that its status – a nuclear power which did not sign the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty – means that aiding it contravenes US law.

“This lawsuit is not about foreign policy. It is about the rule of law, presidential power, the structural limits of the US Constitution, and the right of the public to understand the functions of government and informed petition of the government for redress,” stated the complaint filed by Grant F. Smith, director of the Institute for Research: Middle East Policy (IRmep).

Sorry goyim, no money to improve your country it has to go to your greatest ally ever. Anytime I Hear "Greatest ally" in reference to Israel, I imagine a rape victim defending her attacker.

I disagree with the aid. We need to make our own shit instead of getting gift cards to stockpiles of unused gulf war equipment.

People don't understand, it's not giving free money to Israel lol. It's just to support US military industry and get rid of old equipment which was never used.

Well of course. Does anyone seriously believe there are no strings attached to funds like this? They are more like bribes from a loanshark or gangster.

They are people who hate Israel because it outdid them, their ancestors, their religion or because they are white socialist/libtards who hate empire and think Israel runs America. In other words, losers. We spend way too much time listening to their complaints.

Yes. Although there are some justifications for military aid to Israel I'm opposed to foreign aid.
