What are you talking about? You can’t turn money into tanks, someone with vast natural resources and industry has to sell them to you and that requires a relationship. The main purchaser of Israeli’s tech is the US, which is done to help prop up our colony’s eocnomy.
Please cite an academic or foreign policy expert that says israel survives alone.
No? How about “Jerome M. Segal, retired as a senior research scholar at the University of Maryland School of Public Policy; he is president of the Jewish Peace Lobby.”
"Israel’s per capita gross domestic product is over $40,000 — similar to that of France and Great Britain. We have defense commitments to them, but we don’t give them any military aid. To Israel, we provide around $1,700 a year for every Israeli family.
Israel has a vibrant economy that typically grows at over 3% a year. It’s GDP is over $400 billion, with U.S. aid only 1% of its economy. If we gave no assistance at all, just the amount of the annual expansion of its economy would cover the lost aid several times over. This aid program fails the needs test."
The econ professor is suggesting cutting off aid to encourage settlers to back off, and giving the money to Palestinian refugees. It’s a bit tongue in cheek.
You’re not going to find a serious person who thinks Israel can survive without a world power behind it.

LMAO Netanyahu hahaha OK man
Can’t refute the point? Of course not, because it’s plain fact.
I don’t know what to say. I’m giving you academic consensus from within Israel, and you respond with Netanyahu
And an economics expert. Missed that did you?
