Fifty-six percent. A majority of Americans now want U.S. military aid to Israel reduced — or ended completely. And the bill explains why they are angry.
THE INVOICE:
• $3.8 billion a year, guaranteed through 2028
• $17.9 billion in the first year of the war
• At least $21.7 billion in two years (Brown University, Costs of War)
• $175 billion since 1948 — more than any nation on Earth has ever received
Then came the Election Day announcement: the aid "ends" by the end of 2026. But check the fine print — no law, no mechanism, no signatures. The deal runs to 2028, the pen belongs to Congress, and the separate arms-sales pipeline keeps moving either way.
Should the $3.8 billion stay in America? Tell us below.
