Can't imagine that it isn't obvious, but OK ... let's try it simple. The complaining is that we should cut off the foreign aid because Egypt is spending it on Mosques. So since I found this to be completely off the wall, went and looked up some info. That page was just one of the things I looked at, but turns out that most of the "aid" isn't paint for Mosques, it's military aid largely. That means jobs in America but that wasn't the point.When congress allocates money for "foreign aid" it's a lump sum amount which is divided up ... so we're playing Egypt as the money hole in the propaganda that's being spouted here but if we cut Egypt, then we also have to cut Israel and everybody else. Now of course hoarking Egypt as some grand beneficiary of our "largesse" sells to the right, it would also mean that Israel would lose twice as much. I've got a problem with that but it appears as though the righties are holding on to the argument anyway, which won't be good news for Israel if they get their wish. Is it sinking in now what I meant here? Strikes me as the usual right wing divert and conquer while sticking it to Israel. |
