    Someone remind me what the U.S. gets out of the BILLIONS we spend on them every year? What do we get? Genocide of vulnerable people? Preservation of some conservative fairy tale about “end-times”? Access to oil being sold by completely different countries who already sell it to us directly? What exactly?

    Well, Israel gets to kill US citizens, sell US technology to China, betray US intelligence agents, and cause incredible damage to the US’s reputation internationally.

    I don’t see a downside! /s
