The United States and Israel have signed multiple bilateral defense cooperation agreements, to include:
a Mutual Defense Assistance Agreement (1952);
a General Security of Information Agreement (1982);
a Mutual Logistics Support Agreement (1991);
and a Status of Forces Agreement (1994)


He's probably speaking on these security agreements....
I think it would require a congressional hearing to remove them

Meanwhile you're under no obligation to be an agent on the coli.

Yet here we are.

If it wasn't clear, politicians work for those that put money in their pockets. The salaries they collect from our tax dollars pales in comparison to what they receive from lobbies.

AIPAC, the Israeli and most powerful lobby, literally forces candidates to sign a document stating their allegiance to their cause, followed by a long list of donors who will contribute to their campaign, no questions asked.

You can judge these politicians based on what they say, or what they do. You can guess which one leads to closer to the truth.

I think it's a bit deeper than that.

I doubt a black country could lobby the US into supporting them in this way

So the United States is supposed to support countries that call the United States their enemy?
But yet support countries that openly flaunting and belittle them on a national stage?! Just so you don't keep glossing over the fact, America earned that scorn they get from that part of the world boy boy.......it's not like it popped outta nowhere

Exactly. Why would the United States support it's enemies? It's supporting an ally.
But it's not just supporting it's ally but mandated to do so by law

But you keep dodging that key part by repeating the same stupid and disingenuous line "support it's enemies"

Hasbara propaganda standard has fallen sharply over the years if you are the best they can trot out to carry their water for them on the coli

Also an ally who is only behind China, Iran, N Korea, and Russia when it comes to spying on us.

Do THEY control the central banking system and the federal reserve?

I'm starting to think this is all one big feedback loop.
