Americans have been paying taxes to arm Israel and build up its' military since the 1960's. I think you would find an argument by many if you think the conservative corporate media has been brainwashing America since the 1960's.
The answer to your question is No!

No. We pay taxes to arm Israel because Israel is more of an ally than an enemy. We pay taxes to build a military to apply lethal force to achieve political objectives not obtainable by other, less expensive means.

We are all brainwashed to believe in self preservation! I don't see what the media has to do with that. Israel's military might is not solely dependent on the US. As a matter of fact, Israel itself is an arms dealer, much to the dismay of the US. This is because Israel will sell arms to country's we don't necessarily approve of them selling armament to, country's such as China.
Your question reeks of stupidity, maybe you should concentrate on subjects less challenging to a simple mind. Like hot dogs!

No, the problem is you're brainwashed by the Socialist Democratic Left. You should thank Israel for every Hezbollah Terrorist that they take out. It's one less that we have to worry about.
And, by the way, no lasting peace has ever been solved by a cease fire. The have all been won by epic battles.

I am a moderate but its both Parites that has helped build up Israel's military since 1948. why do you think they won so many wars? Its because of our technology. I am mad at both parties but since Bush is in office is getting the crap. Clinton gave a crap load of money to the Jews while they kicked the crap out of Israel's "enemies"

Nope, the liberals kept up the foreign aid payments as well. Can't you lameass liberals come up with any questions other than to bait the opposition (or everyone else for that matter). Oh, yeah, I forgot, that's how you maintain your false sense of self-importance -- or is it impotence?
Get a life.
