Two THAAD missile batteries are in Israel, 'one quarter of the world's total supply of THAAD missile batteries,' manned by US personnel to protect Israel. Since 10/07/2023, 'the United States has spent at minimum $30,000,000,000 defending Israel,' while the Israeli military budget before October 7 was 'about 25,000,000,000.' Over its existence, 'the United States has put 300,000,000,000, at least those are just the on books numbers, into supporting Israel,' making Israel 'the largest recipient of USAID over time and currently.' Egypt is second, and spending in Egypt is 'at the request of Israel.' The speaker argues this shows disproportionate US attention, noting that India and China combined represent more than a third of the world’s population.

The speaker argues that online discourse on Israel is split into two extreme camps and that US politics mirrors this division, creating a harmful national distraction. To heal the relationship and conversation, four steps are proposed: 1) Global perspective: The United States is a 350,000,000-strong powerhouse; Israel is tiny with 9,000,000 people and few natural resources. The US has spent at least $30,000,000,000 defending Israel since 10/07/2023, and about $300,000,000,000 overall; two THAAD batteries in Israel represent a quarter of the world’s supply. Prominent claims: "The United States needs Israel" and "Israel could not survive without The United States." 2) Self-respect: stop being treated as a client state; cited incidents include Pollard and Israeli officers in the Pentagon; Netanyahu's "I control Donald Trump" remark. 3) Citizenship: end dual citizenship; APAC to register under FAIR. 4) Theology: reject Christian Zionism; "the chosen people in Christianity are those who choose Jesus."

Supporters of Israel in the Middle East should stop apologizing for their stance, as there is no need for it. The $3 billion investment the United States makes in Israel is highly valuable. In fact, if Israel did not exist, the US would have to create it in order to safeguard its interests in the region.

I don't advocate for America fighting wars for Israel. Israel is capable of defending itself, but if it's pushed to a corner, there's a risk of nuclear conflict. That's why it's crucial for the United States to offer support to Israel.

So right now, as we speak tonight, there are two THAAD missile batteries in Israel. That's one quarter of the world's total supply of THAAD missile batteries. They are American military personnel, and they are manning these batteries to protect Israel. And that shouldn't surprise you because since 10/07/2023, which is a little less than two years ago, The United States has spent at minimum $30,000,000,000 defending Israel. Israel is by far, no one comes close, the largest recipient of USAID over time and currently. They don't know how disproportionate our attention to Israel and our spending on Israel is relative to the rest of the world.

A big part of the reason why Netanyahu even still to this day doesn't have to kowtow to The United States is because he understands the leverage he has. He understands that he is the wall that protects The United States and the Western allies from Iran. And it makes it so that we can spend our money on something else, and he spends his money and his lives protecting the rest of us against Iran.

"it's not antisemitic to talk about this, and it's not antisemitic to question any foreign country's government secular government, including Israel." "We fund a lot of other countries' borders better than we fund our own." "it's over $800,000,000,000,000, actually, close to 900,000,000,000,000 is the total bill." "the 500,000,000 for Israel." "They already received $3,400,000,000 annually every single year through the State Department." "Taiwan for 500,000,000 and for Jordan for 500,000,000 as well." "There's 15,000,000 in there for AIDS prevention education activities." "America's broke. We're $37,000,000,000,000 in debt." "we just can't pay for the world anymore." "Not being an isolationist. That's actually being smart and serving the people that that pay for all of this stuff and have been chained into 37,000,000,000,000 in debt." "And that's not being mean to foreign people and foreign countries, but America's broke."

Support for Israel in the Middle East should not require an apology. It is seen as a valuable investment, worth $3 billion, and crucial for protecting American interests in the region. In fact, the United States would even create Israel if it didn't exist already.

In the Middle East, it's time to stop apologizing for supporting Israel. There's no need for apologies because our support for Israel is a valuable investment of $3 billion. Without Israel, the United States would have to create it to safeguard its interests in the region.

The U.S. has contributed more to Israel's defense budget than Israel itself in the last three years. This year, the U.S. gave nearly $3.1 billion to Israel, making it the top recipient of American foreign aid. This occurs while many Americans struggle with finances, senior citizens can't afford medications, veterans are underserved, and schools are closing. Israel ranks among the top 30 richest countries, yet receives a large lump sum of aid upfront, allowing it to accumulate interest while the U.S. pays interest on the borrowed money. Additionally, the U.S. gives billions to Egypt and Jordan to discourage them from opposing Israeli policies, adding to the financial burden. With presidential elections approaching and promises to cut spending to address the $16 trillion debt, some argue the U.S. should prioritize its own needs.

Speaker argues the United States is Israel's last large ally besides the UK, with a large cost and limited perspective due to lies from the political class and media. They blame U.S. elected leaders for decades of misrepresentation. Citing Nikki Haley's 2023 Republican primary debate, the quote: "Last thing we need to do is to tell Israel what to do. The only thing we should be doing is supporting them and eliminating Hamas. It is not that Israel needs America. America needs Israel." The speaker contends this is inverted: "Israel could not survive without The United States." American backing funds Israeli wars and social services; "every dollar that goes to the Israeli military from The United States is a dollar that the nation of Israel can spend on its own people." Haley wasn't asked to explain, and questioning geopolitics is feared as antisemitic, leading to "a state of perpetual intimidation" and "We have not had an honest conversation about this ever."

"In the past three years, Americans have paid more for Israel's defense budget than Israelis themselves, according to the Israeli army's former chief of staff." "The United States gave nearly $3,100,000,000 to Israel this year, making it the number one contributor of American foreign aid." "And yet during this time, we're giving a huge amount of money to Israel." "Israel ranks among the top 30 richest countries in the world, while some of the poorest countries only see a fraction of that amount in USAID." "According to the Congressional Research Center, once dispersed, Israel's military aid is transferred to an interest bearing account with the Federal Reserve Bank." "This means Americans are paying interest on the billions of dollars given to Israel, while Israel accumulates interest on those same billions."

It is not in the U.S.'s or Israel's interest to get involved in another major war in the Middle East. It's false to say that when Israel was attacked, America was attacked. Adopting that mentality leads to situations like Iraq. The U.S. shouldn't put boots on the ground in Israel, and many Israelis agree. The U.S. is limited in how it can support Israel right now due to resources given to Ukraine and military drawdown after twenty years of war. The U.S. drew down artillery prepositioned in Israel and gave it to Ukraine, and it will take years to rebuild the capacity to adequately support partners like Israel and Ukraine while preparing for a potential conflict with China. Israel is going to need a lot of artillery shells just like Ukraine does. Early in the Ukraine war, Israel was attacked for taking a neutral stance and resisting pressure to send its Iron Dome to Ukraine. Had Israel caved, more Israelis would have died. Israel deserves credit for prioritizing the safety of its citizens.

Two THAAD missile batteries in Israel. "one quarter of the world's total supply of THAAD missile batteries." "The THAAD missile battery is an American made, very high-tech missile battery that takes incoming missiles out of the sky." "one quarter of the world's entire supply of these is in Israel right now manned by US troops, by Americans in uniform or not." "They are American military personnel, and they are manning these batteries to protect Israel." Since "10/07/2023," the United States has spent at minimum $30,000,000,000 defending Israel. The entire Israeli military budget before October 7 was about 25,000,000,000. So United States has put at least 30,000,000,000 into defending Israel in less than two years. Over the course of its existence, a little less than eighty years, The United States has put 300,000,000,000, at least those are just the on books numbers, into supporting Israel. "Israel is by far, no one comes close, the largest recipient of USAID over time and currently." "Number two is Egypt." "We are spending our time, our money, and we're taking enormous risks on behalf of a country that geopolitically is not significant at all." "India and China combined represent more than a third of the entire world's population." It's a massive displacement of people and killing on a grand scale of unarmed people, of unarmed combatants, of civilians, of women and children.

Israel is facing deep trouble with no way out. They couldn't defeat Hamas in Gaza, are stuck there, and lack a military solution against Hezbollah. A war with Iran won't solve their problems. Internal issues, like reservists' misconduct, could lead to civil war. Israel heavily relies on the US for support, receiving $18 billion in 2024.

The United States has been the primary arms supplier to Israel for the war on Gaza. Washington has allocated over $21 billion in military aid for American-made weapons. In the past year, over 500 military cargo planes and 170 ships have supplied Israel with 75,000 artillery shells, 14,900-kilogram bombs, 6,500 226-kilogram bombs, 3,000 Hellfire missiles, 1,000 bunker buster bombs, and 2,600 airdrop small diameter bombs. Comparatively, 15,000 tons of explosives were dropped on Hiroshima, 21,000 tons on Nagasaki, 2,700+ tons on Dresden, 16,000 tons on Hamburg, and 1,510 tons in the firebombing of Tokyo, totaling 56,210 tons. Israel has dropped 85,000 tons of high explosives on Gaza, a densely populated area.

Speaker 0: In a few days, America is already running out of weapons against Iran, despite spending about $1,000,000,000,000 a year on defense. The administration is meeting with top defense contractors at the White House because strikes on Iran are diminishing US stockpiles, especially long-range munitions like Tomahawk missiles. Interceptor missiles are being exhausted by Iranian attacks. This is not getting wide play in the mainstream media; there is a blackout. CNN reported that Israel told them they are not allowed to show incoming rocket attacks. Speaker 1: One go up there. We're not showing you that because we're not gonna show. The Israeli government does not allow us or want us to show where that may have come up, that interceptor. Speaker 0: The most powerful military machine in history is not calling a meeting because it's winning too hard. It’s calling a meeting because the shelves are getting bare. Axios and The Wall Street Journal report that the reality contradicts slogans of unlimited munitions. War is fought with inventory and magazine depth, not slogans. The White House is seeking more supply as munitions run low. Speaker 0: The dirty little secret is that war isn’t fought with slogans; it’s fought with inventory. The Iran fight is the worst kind of war for stockpiles because it’s strike targets and defense of everything you own at the same time. A CIA station house in Riyadh was hit; Iran could strike a CIA station, and telemetry data may have come from China or Russia. Iran doesn’t need to beat the US head-to-head in aircraft carriers to bleed us dry. Speaker 0: Aircraft carriers are relics of the post-World War II era and are vulnerable to hypersonic weapons. France is sending a carrier; it’s not about carriers but about forcing us to burn high-end interceptors faster than we can replace them. It comes down to math: a $50,000 drone versus a $4,000,000 interceptor or a naval missile defense shot. We’re bleeding resources. Speaker 0: Tomahawks are expensive long-range munitions. The Pentagon plans to buy only 72 Tomahawks in fiscal year 2025 and 57 in fiscal year 2026, while operations have consumed hundreds. Each missile is around $1,300,000. Raytheon and others are ramping Tomahawk production from roughly 60 per year to eventually 1,000 per year. How long will that take? The defense supply chain is strained. Speaker 0: The entire defensive layer is under strain: Patriot PAC-3 MSE interceptors, costing about $4,000,000 each; Lockheed is moving to more than triple capacity, roughly from 600 per year to roughly 2,000 per year. Interceptors are expensive, and ramping production cannot fix the immediate shortfall. Speaker 0: Ukraine aid is enormous in dollar terms—State Department reporting puts military assistance since 2022 at over or close to $70,000,000,000, likely higher. Ukraine has been a grinding logistics war; Iran is turning into a high-end missile and air defense consumption war. Boots on the ground are being considered as necessary; air campaigns alone cannot achieve regime change. 155-millimeter shells production is around 40,150 rounds per month as of 2024–2025, but Ukraine’s consumption is far higher. Mineral shortages also constrain production, prompting the White House to convene the defense industry. Speaker 0: The war plan may be to destroy enough of Iran’s launch capability before magazines run shallow—a brutal last-call scenario. The US is fighting on two tracks: attack and defense, using Tomahawks, B-2 bombers, and 2,000-pound bombs, along with low-cost drones around $35,000 each. The message to Middle East allies is that the US cannot fully protect them as stocks thin. Putin and China are watching, waiting to see if the US can prevent a massive Russian advance or another major theater’s strain. The White House meeting with CEOs reads like a panic flare, not victory, as munitions are consumed faster than they can be replenished. The speaker notes the high death toll on Iran’s side and asks for more transparency on American casualties, while reiterating the commitment to anti-war principles.

Israel is assessed to have at least 200 tactical, possibly strategic, nuclear weapons. Western pressure and influence and control over the IAEA is the reason it's been exempt, overlooked, and not mentioned. The IAEA is an instrument of the West, and the US has people there who can influence it. The West controls Western international forums, particularly the United Nations and all of the other reporting agencies to the UN. The United States pays 75% of their bills, and that influence is tremendous. The Israeli lobby has influence on US officials and politicians because they're all paid for. The US gives $3 billion a year as a grant to the Israelis, who probably use some of that money for lobbying purposes in the United States. The US is basically paying the Israelis to lobby them, in addition to buying new weapon systems and working with them on new weapons development programs.

Israel is crucial for the United States' interests in the region. Without Israel, the US would need to create it. The US sees Israel as a valuable investment, providing $3 billion annually.

Speaker 0 provides a characterization of recent events, alleging that the American people are being lied to by their government about what’s transpiring. He claims Iran has destroyed five radars, specifying two types: AN TPY and AN FPS. He states that one type costs $500,000,000 and the other two each cost a billion dollars. He asserts that these radars were located at the military base at Al Udeid and at the naval base in Bahrain, and that all have been bombed or attacked, with the Bahrain facility essentially destroyed. Speaker 0 emphasizes that these radars were critical for the air defense system because they would provide “the immediate warning that, oh, there’s been a missile launch. It’s going on this trajectory. This is where you need to be prepared to engage it,” and notes that they were tied into a system called THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense). He states there are “like a total of 10 THAAD batteries in the world,” and claims that Iran has destroyed three of those, representing “30% of our total number of THAADs in the world” in the last week. He continues by asserting that Iran has destroyed “about $4,000,000,000 worth of radars, in a week.” He adds that Iran is now regularly hitting Israel despite claims that the United States has “blown up their launchers.” He concludes by stating that authorities “continue to think that we can solve these problems with force instead of diplomacy.”

Investing $3 billion in Israel is the best decision we make. We shouldn't apologize for supporting Israel in this body. It's a crucial investment for the United States. In fact, if Israel didn't exist, the US would have to create it to safeguard its interests in the Middle East.

Israel is a critical ally and vital for their survival. Supporting them is crucial, especially with replenishing their defense systems like the Iron Dome. Our assistance helped them defend against recent attacks. It's a symbolic gesture and a biblical duty to stand with Israel. They will prevail as long as we stand by them.

In this video, I will prove to you that Israel is ruling the American government. Since World War II, The United States has given over $260,000,000,000 in aid to Israel, more than to any other country in the entire world. The US sends $3,800,000,000 to Israel every year—about $10,000,000 every single day—for fighter jets, bombs, tanks, and missile defense systems like the Iron Dome. In 2016, The US signed the largest military aid deal in American history, a $38,000,000,000 package over ten years, locked in, guaranteed, no matter who sits in the White House. Much of this money must be spent on American defense companies. Iron Dome has received over $2,600,000,000 in US funding since 2011. APAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, is described as 'the most powerful foreign policy lobby in Washington.' In the twenty twenty two midterms alone, pro Israel groups poured over 30,000,000 into campaign donations. APAC's Super PAC, the United Democracy Project, spent millions to defeat critics like Donna Edwards and Andy Levin. The question remains: Who's ruling who?

Two main online camps: ethnonarcissists who equate criticism of Israel with blood libel, and anti-Semites who condemn Jews by virtue of Jewishness. Few conventional Christians offer a secular, non-judgmental view. In the US, the debate mirrors this, though Israel is small and not critical to our national security, yet receives outsized attention and aid. There are two THAAD batteries in Israel—"a quarter of the world's total supply"—and since 10/07/2023 the US has spent at least $30,000,000,000 defending Israel, with about $300,000,000,000 total historically. Critics cite Nikki Haley's "The United States needs Israel" and Netanyahu's "I control Donald Trump." Four proposed fixes: 1) global perspective; 2) self-respect and stop being ordered around by a client state; 3) restore citizenship (no dual citizenship; foreign military service); 4) correct Christian theology, rejecting DNA-based chosenness as heresy.

The speaker asks how much support the U.S. gives to Israel. The response is approximately $3 billion a year in military assistance. It is asserted that this military assistance is the only assistance Israel receives from the U.S. There is a memorandum of understanding (MOU) for the $3 billion annual amount.
