House passes critical aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan along with a TikTok ban
The bills amount to a $95 billion aid package in total.
The House on Saturday passed a $95 billion aid package that includes two long-awaited bills with $60.8 billion of Ukraine aid and $26 billion in aid to Israel.
The Ukraine bill, which passed with 311 votes in favor, 112 votes against, and one present, will now head to the Senate alongside the Israel aid bill and two others — one with aid for Taiwan and another that forces Tiktok's parent company to sell it.

Why does Israel need aid? To help them invade someone more?
The realpolitik answer is that they’re the only country in the region with highly functioning western-style market economy. That is valuable to other functioning western style market economies. Its a system trying to help itself propagate.
The way your 'y's alling on this post made my day! (mildly)
That doesn't make any sense, considering support for Israel was the main cause behind the 9/11 attacks.
Seems like support for Israel is good for one nation: Israel.
The cause of 9/11 is US influence in the land of Mecca.
Weird way to spell "They are white just like us" but ok ig
Lol wtf
You'll understand when you're older.
Funny that you suggest that while acting like an old child
They need the moneys to genocide harder, better, faster, stronger.
Wowowow, keep Daft Punk out of this
But how can we when the Israeli apartheid regime is trying to take their shitshow around the world around the WORld?
I guess shells are in high demand, currently. I don't expect much but I hope the Senate votes it down or removes the majority of the Israel aid package. Currently it's about 12 Billion USD worth of various support in addition to 14 Billion "Unconditional Military Support" while dealing with Iran.
If I had to rationalize it, I expect they simply want to give the bare minimum to avoid requiring sending soldiers to invade Iran directly. In my opinion, we'd be justified to "invade" Israel and oust the Netanyahu administration, solving the entire problem a lot cheaper.

Nah, the bare minimum to avoid sending soldiers to Iran is whatever it costs to send Israel a message saying "Lol, get fucked."
Israel has made their bed, let them lie in it now. I really don't see the US being able to sell an invasion of Iran at this point.
If you had read my comment to completion you probably wouldn't feel the need to write this response.
