You directly fund and provide every single weapon they are using on the Palestinian people.

Actually, the Israeli's have a very robust domestic arms industry. It's one of the best in the world and can maintain their war fighting ability without our assistance. In fact, I believe that's the point. I'm more than happy to let them have at it too. As another poster said....We've managed to arm everyone on ALL sides over there for this fight. Time for America to get involved? Oh hell no... We've done FAR too much already. All we'll do is delay a fight that needs to happen and needs to happen without us for a change.
The world needs to let these two sides have their fight like the bullies on the playground and not break it up this time. Only THAT will bring a peace that means anything to anyone afterward. God knows they've tried it the other way enough times now and for enough decades. Just my thoughts..

OP. do we really want to leave Israel alone?
"The state of Israel must invent dangers, and to do this it must adopt the methods of provocation and revenge.... And above all, let us hope for a new war with the Arab countries so that we may finally get rid of our troubles and acquire our space." -- From the diary of Moshe Sharett, Israeli's first Foreign Minister from 1948-1956, and Prime Minister from 1954-1956.

Where did you get this idea at? What kind of ally spies, steals, murders our civilians, attacks our ships and sells our secrets to the highest bidder along with weapons we GIVE to them for their defense. America has no need for an "ally" like them.
