Chill....
As an 'American citizen' I Think you should be concerned about constitutional laws being broken.
I also think you should think about it 'criticaly'.

i am more concerned about a country that once held our citizens hostage for over a year because the current extremest government took over ever getting their hands on weapons that truly no country should posses. unfortunately we started the whole damn thing. so yes anything we do to try and stop others from having nukes does seem hypocritical but the genie is out of the bottle and the only thing that can be done is to try and keep it out of the hands of those who would not think twice in using them to further their own beliefs. even if that means double standards and manipulation.

I tend to disagree. Can you tell yet?
Seriously, what is wrong with Iran having nuclear power? That is all they have claimed to want. Just because the mullahs are bonkers, doesn't mean they'll attack a country with nuclear weapons.
Christ on a bike. Think about it. Iran nukes Israel. Iran, becomes a shiny piece of glass.
There are radicals in every country, in every religion.
I guess my whole point is that Israel, as a country, is now quite capable of defending itself. So, why does it constantly need hand outs, primarily from the US and German tax payer, to defend itself? I'm sure that money could be put to use in their own countries to better effect. I have provided a FACT that the money going to Israel from the US is illegal, by its own laws. Either change the law, or ask the question.

you have provided a fact that most americans are already aware of or simple do not care about.
we provide israel the handouts for the same reason other large governments back smaller countries in strategic areas. ever played the board game risk? its just that simple.

I'd agree. But there are a few things that make me think it is less about strategy, and more about blackmail.
The King David Hotel and the U.S.S. Liberty.
Guess the old saying about keeping your enemies closer than your friends, may just be true.
But, then again. I'm just paranoid.

OK, now this may just be urban legend, but during the 6 day war when Isreal looked like it may be losing, did they not have a nuclear bomber in the air, armed and ready to drop if things took a turn for the worse?
