Nahhh if we’re gonna give hundreds of billions to Ukraine then we can give a few billion to Israel to fight off terrorists who want to wipe them off the face of the Earth
The United States having positive relations with Russia benefits both of our countries and it's peoples. How ironic they place us against each other as if the average American despises the average Russian(not true).
Helping Israel defend itself from terrorist has a lot to do with the United States wanting to keep it's "War on Terror" going perpetually and it just so happens to benefit Israel on many levels. The United States probably feels partially responsible for the uptick in attacks going back to 2001 because we created/funded a lot of "extremist groups" across the ME to sow terrors' and division amongst their own peoples.
A "Palestinian state" is not going to magically solve anything it would only complicate an already complicated region of the world.
I voted "no" not because I dislike the average Palestinian but more so the potential for it to be used in the future as a "firestarter" in the ME. Basically repeating what Israel is today where because of it's "status change" after WW2 it became a focal point for the potential WW3.
