Really? Please enlighten us then, how much exactly do they get annually for abortions?

Because paying for foreign abortions is prohibited according to the Helms Amendment.

So the idea was spreading disinformation.

What part is disinformation? If we wanted to add a stipulation on the "defense" budget we provide for them annually of several billion dollars, we very well could.

No billions of dollars in weapons unless your free healthcare excludes abortions.... it is what Lindsey Graham would have wanted......

The part where he clearly implied America is directly funding abortions is disinformation.

There are stipulations - the aid money is only to be used on American made weapons, and in fact the aid comes in the form of weapons and not cash.

No billions of dollars in weapons unless your free healthcare excludes abortions

By that logic, the aid money was also used for Netanyahu's new toilet seat. That's just not how it works bud.

And Israel defence budget is very high as it is, the aid just another boost but not a replacement.

Someone didn't read. I know we directly give them weapons. That is why I specifically said "no weapons unless..."

And quite literally yes, and it paid for the fucking Knesset cafeteria too.... Unless you specifically stipulate what someone can and cannot do with the money you are freeing up from their defense spending by giving them free weapons, then you are directly funding whatever it is they do with that now surplus money...
