The United States Congress will guarantee to give Israel a minimum of $38 billion dollars over the next ten years. How much is that per Israeli?
Thirty-eight billion US dollars is $38,000,000,000 that is thirty-eight with nine zeros. The Isreali population is 8,452,841. If that money were given to each Israeli in one payment, each one would get 4,495.53. It doesn't seem to be that much.
But it won't be paid in one lump sum. It will be paid in bits and pieces over the years. Each Israeli will not get an equal share either. Only a few Israelis will get the money.
The government and the people who control the government will get the money. They will spend that money buying things from the United States and from U.S. allies like Great Britain and France.
Those Israelis will buy American weapons systems. They will pay for settlements, roads, and walls to further carve up the West Bank and expand Israeli power.
Americans employed by American war industries will be paid. Israelis employed by the Israeli government will be paid. Members of the Palestinian Authority will be paid. The PA actually works for Israel. It only pretends to work for the Palestinians just as Hamas has always said.
Hamas is the enemy because Hamas doesn't work for Israel. Hamas is essential. Enemies are required as a reason for this system. As a matter of fact, Israel created Hamas as a counter-weight to the PA. So, in a perverse way, Hamas and the Palestinians who fight Israel do work for Israel.
The U.S. empire has been erected on a foundation of bullshit. The U.S. dollar has value because it is widely believed to have value. The Federal Reserve System and its adjunct the United States Department of the Treasury control the system.
The Fed is controlled by a few private individuals. It is not part of the U.S. government. American citizens have no control over what it does. Americans imagine they control the government. They do not.
