The story would be more credible if we knew how many families took the
money, or even how many bombers were motivated by it. I really doubt it is a
deciding factor when you are forced to give up land your family has lived on
for generations to house economic refugees from Eastern Europe.
Israel is also rewarded for is barbarous acts. Last year, Israel got
eight-hundred-and-forty million dollars in economic aid and nearly
two-billion-dollars in military aid from the USA.
Compare those numbers to the USA’s feeble overseas aid budget.
