If Americans Knew: Media Ignore Largest Foreign Military Aid Package in US History
SAN DIEGO, Nov. 29, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- U.S. news media are failing to inform Americans about the largest military aid package to a foreign country in U.S. history, says If Americans Knew.
Congress is poised to pass legislation that will give Israel a minimum of $38 billion over the next ten years.
That amounts to $7,230 per minute to Israel, or $120 per second, and equals about $23,000 for each Jewish Israeli family of four. A stack of 38 billion one-dollar bills would reach ten times higher than the International Space Station as it orbits the earth.
In an unprecedented action, a senator has placed a block on the legislation in an attempt to prevent a vote and says he will introduce an amendment in coming days.
Pro-Israel organizations are orchestrating pressure against the senator, Rand Paul (R-Ky). The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) has placed Facebook ads calling on Israel partisans to pressure Paul to end his resistance.
While U.S. media have not reported on any of this to the general American public whose money will be sent to Israel, Israeli media are covering it thoroughly.
For more information on the legislation see this detailed report.
