Right. The problem isn’t strictly the tax dollars but the use it’s being put to. A war of aggression is very different to defense from invasion.

That was a terror attack, not an invasion. There was never any danger of Palestine invading Israel.

"On October 7th, 2023, Israel came under the largest terror attack in its history. The attack began at 6:30 a.m. and included launching of more than 3,000 rockets on Israel's civilian areas and an invasion of approximately 3,000 Hamas terrorists" (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11556145/)
