💥Congressional Support for Israel &American Spies For MOSSAD Escaping Impeachment!?
🔴 The main expression of Congressional support for Israel has been foreign aid.[1]



🔵 Since 1985, it has provided nearly US$3 billion in grants annually to Israel, with Israel being the largest annual recipient of American aid from 1976 to 2004 and the largest cumulative recipient of aid ($121 billion, not inflation-adjusted) since World War II.[2]


🔵 Seventy-four percent of these funds must be spent purchasing US goods and services.[3]

🔷 More recently, in fiscal year 2014, the US provided $3.1 billion in foreign military aid to Israel.[2]


🔷 Israel also benefits from about $8 billion of loan guarantees.[2]

💥Flash_Back:-

President Bush agreed in principle to support Israel's request for $10 billion in U.S. loan guarantees,



he & Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin instructed aides to work out details in time for a Tuesday announcement, according to U.S. officials.

***********************
💥To be continued
Congress has monitored the aid issue closely along with other issues in bilateral relations, and its concerns have affected Administrations' policies.[1]



Almost all US aid to Israel is now in the form of military assistance, while in the past it also received significant economic assistance. Strong congressional support for Israel has resulted in Israel receiving benefits not available to other countries.[2]





In addition to financial and military aid, the United States also provides political support to Israel, having used its United Nations Security Council veto power 42 times with respect to resolutions relating to Israel, out of a total 83 times in which its veto has ever been used. Between 1991 and 2011, 15 vetos were used to protect Israel out of 24 in total.[4][5]









Bilateral relations have evolved from an initial US policy of sympathy and support for the creation of a Jewish homeland in 1948 to an unusual partnership that links a small but militarily powerful Israel, dependent on the United States for its economic and military strength, with the American superpower trying to balance other competing interests in the region, including Russia's intentions.[6][7]

US Aid to Israel Fact Sheet
Total American aid to Israel since 1949 exceeds $114 billion

In the 2010 fiscal year, the U.S.

gave Israel $2.77 billion in Foreign Military Financing funds (FMF), an amount slated to reach $3 billion in 2011.

“Foreign Military Financing refers to congressionally appropriated grants given to foreign governments to finance the purchase of American-made weapons, services and training. The vast majority of these funds goes to Israel and Egypt,” according to the Federation of American Scientists.

At the completion of this 10-year-plan in 2018, the U.S. will have given Israel $30 billion in unconditional military aid. The United States awards this grant in one lump sum, unlike other foreign recipients, which receive their payments in installments. Israel uses the interest it earns on this amount to pay down its debt to the United States, valued at $625 million in August 2010.

Under the terms of the agreement, Israel will be able to spend 26 percent of these U.S. funds on Israeli-manufactured military equipment. This agreement, which is unique only to Israel, has allowed Israel to grow to be the world’s 7th largest exporter of military weaponry and equipment.

Israel also receives aid in other ways such as loan guarantees and reduced cost or free military equipment.

Here is a breakdown of some of the aid Israel receives from the United States:

Pending: $205 million in defense assistance to purchase batteries for the missile defense system known as the Iron Dome. The House passed H.R. 5327 in May 2010. The Senate version, S 3451, is waiting for a vote on the Senate floor.
$2.75 billion – Israel will
purchase 20 F-35s with Foreign Military Financing funds
provided by the United States.
In addition, under a reciprocal agreement, the U.S. has
pledged to spend $4 billion purchasing equipment from Israel’s defense industries.
$89 million – The Duncan
Hunter National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2009 authorized this amount for the activation and deployment of
the X-Ban Radar missile
defense warning system.

The United States owns and operates this system at a secret location in the Negev, using for the first time U.S. history military personnel and contractors on Israeli soil.
$202 million – The amount allocated in the Defense Department budget appropriation for U.S.-Israeli missile defense for FY2010.
Additional grants and loan guarantees:
$25 million – The amount the United States gave Israel in 2010 to help Jewish immigrants move to Israel, settle there and learn Hebrew.
$460 million – The amount the U.S. State Department’s Migration and Refugee Assistance program gave Israel – through the private charity United Israel Appeal - to resettle Jews in Israel between 1973 and 1991.
$9.2 billion – Amount U.S. gave Israel to resettle Soviet Jews between 1972 and 1990.
$333 million – Amount of U.S. loan guarantees in 2010 (Israel is legally obligated to use the proceeds of guaranteed loans for refinancing its government debt and not for military purposes. However, Israel’s national budget is fungible, meaning the issuances of U.S.-guaranteed debt that are used to refinance Israeli government debt free up domestic Israeli funds for other uses.)
Israel has not always been an honest foreign aid recipient, breaking both U.S. and international laws by the misuse of American weaponry, espionage and selling sensitive military equipment and knowledge to countries unfriendly to the United States.

🔴Weapons use violations🔴
💥 Cluster munitions – In 1982 the Reagan administration found that Israel ‘may’ have violated its 1952 Mutual Defense Assistance Agreement with the U.S. by using U.S.-supplied cluster bombs against civilians in Lebanon.?!

🔻Israel also may have violated several American laws by its use of American-made Apache helicopters, F-16 fighter jets and other U.S.-produced ammunition on the civilian population of Gaza during Operation Cast Lead in December 2008 and January 2009, according to a report by the National Lawyers Guild.



🔵Questionable deals🔵
In 2000, Israel sought to sell the Airborne Early Warning System to China, which could threaten “the forces of democratic Taiwan and the United States in the region surrounding the Taiwan Straights.”

⭕️ In 2006, Israel froze a $100-million contract with Venezuela to upgrade its U.S.
manufactured F-16 fighter jets due to U.S. pressure.

🔻 In 2009, an Israeli defense company partnering with Swedish manufacturer Saab backed out of a bidding competition to sell Swedish-designed fighter jets to India because U.S. officials worried U.S. technology would be integrated into the jets.
🔴Espionage-related cases🔴
👉Jonathan Pollard, indicted in November 1985 for selling classified documents to Israel. Four Israelis also charged. Pollard was convicted and is serving a life sentence.

👉📌Lawrence Franklin, indicted June 13, 2005, for the unauthorized disclosure of classified information relating to al Qaeda, U.S. policy toward Iran and the Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia to a foreign diplomat.

👉Steven J. Rosen and Keith Weissman, of the AIPAC lobby, were indicted on Aug. 4, 2005, for their part in the Franklin’s espionage. On May 1, 2009, U.S. prosecutors filed a motion to dismiss the case because of the likelihood that classified information would be revealed at trial that would damage national security.

👉Ben-Ami Kadish, arrested on April 22, 2008, on suspicion of giving classified information on nuclear weapons to Israel.
Kadish pleaded guilty on May 29, 2009, to one count of conspiracy to act as an unregistered agent of Israel and was fined $50,000.


"Ben-Ami Kadish, a U.S. citizen and engineer employed at a military arsenal in Dover, New Jersey, supplied secrets to Israel from 1979 through 1985, according to a court document unsealed Tuesday."

" Kadish is accused of providing secrets that dealt with nuclear weapons, the F-15 plane and the Patriot defense missile system."

"At a court hearing Tuesday afternoon, Kadish was released on a $300,000 property bond. He was required to surrender his passport and will be allowed to travel only in New York and New Jersey. " Watch Kadish leave court after being charged »

👉Stewart Nozette, indicted on
Oct. 15, 2009, for allegedly attempting to sell classified information about U.S. satellites, early-warning systems and
other systems to the Mossad (Israel’s foreign intelligence and spy agency). Nozette pleaded guilty to a “seemingly unrelated two-count charge of conspiracy to defraud the United States
and tax evasion.”
" Maryland man would be sentenced
to 13 years in prison for selling U.S. secrets to an undercover FBI agent posing as an Israeli spy."

"In January 2009, Nozette pleaded guilty to conspiring to defraud the govern"

Others maintain that Israel is a strategic ally, and that US relations with Israel strengthen the US presence in the Middle East.[1] Israel is one of the United States' two original major non-NATO allies in the Middle East.



Late Republican Senator Jesse Helms used to call Israel "America's aircraft carrier in the Middle East", when explaining why the United States viewed Israel as such a strategic ally, saying that the military foothold in the region offered by the Jewish State alone justified the military aid that the United States grants Israel every year.[8][9] Currently, there are seven major non-NATO allies in the Greater Middle East.
