Johnny D - all the facts you state are accurate, and the conclusions you draw from them certainly make sense. As usual, there is a TON of logic to every single point you have made on this topic.
I just disagree in that, if I have to sacrifice my hard-earned money so that the Israelis can acquire military equipment that literally helps them fight off annihilation...I'm willing to make that sacrifice.
IMHO, that money is better spent than failed welfare programs that incentivize and perpetuate laziness and entitlement. I feel my money is better spent keeping Israelis alive, then giving it to 'poor' people so they can buy cigarettes, beer, smart phones, flat screen TVs, etc...
As to Africa...there is a difference between those who won't help themselves, and those who can't help themselves. I'm certain you agree with that, we likely disagree about which category most africans fall into.
Anyway...happy holidays to you and yours, it seems we both are fortunate enough to have much to be thankful for.
