The USA has spent decades and billions of dollars to build up the Israeli army, and now that they used it President Bush announces today that I get to fork out $250 billion to rebuild Lebonon.

says bush: what is screwed up about it?
you make money on the weapons, you use up the weapons, so israel buys more, you make money rebuilding lebanon, then you knock it down with more weapons, get more money rebuilding it, and so on - makes good sense to me - and the little people pay for everything and take the risks too and get the deaths and the griefs - seems about perfect to me - no danger, no risk, big money - what could be screwy about it?
the only thing screwy is the people letting us do it, but hey, i am not a philosopher, i cant explain why the people just sit there with their mouths open, i am just here for the pickings

I don't see any thing wrong with that. The U.S. may have provided the hardware but the Israelis are the one that used it. It seems the perfectly humanitarian thing to do.

It's screwed up, but it's nothing new. That's the military-industrial complex at work, and we all know who benefits from it and it's not you and me. Cheney got a nice little 20 million dollar going-away present from Halliburton.

Well I will forward your willingness to pay the debt by yourself to the President so the rest of us can save a few bucks on our taxes. I am sure that the rest of tax paying america will be grateful to you.
