Aid to Israel is not given freely. I would be willing to guess that the intel we get from them and the testing they have done on US weapon systems under live fire senerios more than pays for the aid we have provided them with. They are the only US friendly nation in the area. They are the ones who took out the Nuke power plant in Iraq (because no one else had the balls to do it).

Israel has offered peace to the PLO et.al but they turn it down. From what I can see, they do not seem to want peace, they want Israel gone and the Jews dead. Israel gave back all the land it captured from Egypt in a bid for peace and it worked. Show me one other nation who captured and in a war and then gave it all back. Israel wants peace and would sacrifice a great deal to get, but the PLO, Hamas and the rest want no part of it.

That's my opinion.
