You’ve given a list of countries selling weapons to Israel. If I sell you my car, I am not “funding” you.

What an exercise in utter futility.

These are just Google results.

US not only fully funds Israeli military and security forces, but also issues sovereign loan guarantees Israeli central bank, especially during Israeli wars. for example, the 2003–2016 for $9 billion, and additional $3.8 billion since.

Israeli Shekels would be worthless without American tax payer guarantee.

The Israeli military and security forces budget is more than $55bn a year, and you are saying the US pays all of it. It’s the first time I’ve ever encountered such an outlandish claim.

The guy is an antisemite and a loon who’s obsessed with Mossad.

CIA & Mossad in that order, and of course, MI6 as well, but their budget is small

right, a crazy person

To anyone downvoting my sibling comment, go look at the post history [1] this guy indulges in loads of crazy conspiracies and ties them all back to Mossad. It’s pretty clear what the underlying motivation is.

US finances costliest weapons (fighter jets, precision munitions, air and missile defense systems such as Iron Dome, David’s Sling, Arrow, and Iron Beam) which provides the qualitative edge of Israel’s military, while Israel’s own budget covers personnel, operations, and much of the day‑to‑day war cost.

Without US tax dollars, Israeli part of military budget would have to shrink by 50 - 60% to pay for R&D, manufacturing, testing, deploying and maintaining of US provided advanced weapon systems.
