Israel receives billions of dollars in military aid from the US each year, much of it spent on American weaponry which US law says must only be used in self-defence.

But experts say there is little chance of cuts in aid to Israel despite its military operation in Gaza.

Al Jazeera's Nick Spicer reports.

  • @BLA5HPHEMY after ww2 jews were given the option to live in athipia due to its hge jew population, they refused as black jews are apparently not as good as white jews. and they say they are victims of rascism.

  • Sderot was always 100% Israeli territory. Are you serious? Israel was founded in 1958. On a stolen land under the excuse that their ancestors lived there thousands of years ago. They had to chose between Argentina, Uganda, Or palestine to build a home land after exterminating the owners. Lame

  • "If I were an Arab leader, I would never sign an agreement with Israel. It is normal; we have taken their country. It is true God promised it to us, but how could that interest them? Our God is not theirs. There has been Anti - Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?"

    David Ben Gurion First Israeli Prime Minister

  • ha ha no cuts in funding ha ha

  • so we get that money back thru buisness, so they buy u.s. military products, i wonder if they get a discount, guess they would be obligated to buy u.s., probably a stipulation:)

  • Nick Spicer- your a moran! I hope that the Arabs you soo support will one day show you what they really think of you.
