... I am beyond certain that military aid to Pakistan will not be mysteriously "delayed" -- after all, Hussein Obama wishes to thank the Pakistani government for sheltering Osama bin Laden for over a decade. Military aid to Iraq, Yemen, Egypt and Indonesia will not be delayed. Just U.S. aid to Israel, which actually foots the bill. As opposed to Pakistan, Iraq, Yemen and Egypt, whose aid comes without strings and certainly without a bill of sale attached. For shame. To echo the poster at No. 2, keep your filthy money. It's drenched in Jewish blood. We want no part of United States aid. Whatever will you do when we stop exporting our information technology -- widely recognized as the top in the world -- and our medical know-how -- equally acknowledged as the top in the world -- to the United States? Whatever will the United States do when we withhold our chemotherapy protocols and our legion enhancements to lousy American weapons technology? Think that isn't coming? As long as that idiot Moslem occupies the White House, think again. Having been born in Kenya -- yes, Israel has the proof -- the only thing in the White House to which Obama has any right to claim is a position as a kitchen steward. That's about what his intellect can tolerate, as he has demonstrated on abundant occasions. Obama is a dissembler, an outright liar and a pretender who has no right to be president. He just does not meet the Constitutional requirements. He is also incredibly dumb. We need to get rid of him. One or another way. He is driving the United States into the brink. Think of him as a rather unusual suicide bomber, but a suicide bomber nevertheless.

(10.03.13)
just so you know....the 3 billion annual military "aid" to israel is ONLY 2% OF THE ISRAELI TOTAL BUDGET AND GDP. DO YOU COMPREHEND THIS???? do you really think that israel would be finished without it???? israel did very well militarily before america decided to send aid only in 1973. yet, it still won all its wars against the aggressive bastards on the other sides of the borders. swallow that! and it is not oy vEy. it is oy vAy. moron.
12. Shutdown fund stop
graczek ,   Maryland, USA   (10.03.13)
This would be the greatest news if the funding for "Israel" not only stops, but remains stopped after the shutdown ends, as it eventually must. Not one penny can ethincally and morally go from America to the illicit Zionist state. Then, finally, it will wither with little or no war necessary.
13. #2 moriah-calm down.
aq   (10.03.13)
Calm down. This silly article really does not worth getting angry about, or even commenting about. And whoever "leaked" it to Reuters did so because of inner American politics issues.
14. #11.1.moron
Tarbouche ,   Aswan   (10.03.13)
He is worried Kerry won't be able to visit us more often
15. To No. 4 Sarh B
Bertram ,   London, UK   (10.03.13)
I do love your schizoid approach. "We (Israel) want no part of United States aid", followed later by "We (the US) need to get rid of him (Obama)".
16. good news, bad news
(10.03.13)
The best thing in the world would be the US stop funding anyone in the Middle East. All Zionists support immediately stopping the funding to Israel. The problem is that the funding for Israel and Egypt is part of the peace treaty. The extreme Left is afraid that stopping funding will prove that American guarantees are worthless (which is true). The extreme Left also needs to keep funding Israel (spent in America) so they can justify direct and indirect transfer payments to anti-Israel Arab terror organizations. The bad news is that despite the Obama regime threats, the funding will not stop. Obama has three more years to go, and he won't be able to blame the unemployment caused by defunding Israel on anyone.
