Which are the benfits? Please as a non American western i fail to understand how “having an ally” in the area (as israel is the only viable option) benefits américa in anyway
When the U.S. gives military aid to Israel, the Israeli government is not putting that money in its pocket. The vast majority of the money that the U.S. allocates to Israel each year must be spent on American weapons. That is true, in general, for American military aid to other countries, such as Ukraine.
Those American weapons that Israel purchases are produced in factories across the U.S. So, many American lawmakers have an interest in sustaining that aid because that money ends up flowing into their own states and providing local jobs.
They use taxpayer money to give business to the defense contractors that they’ve invested in. It’s a kickback, to themselves.
