The best way to stop Israel from doing this is to threaten to stop sending money to Israel.

I don't know if that'll make a significant enough dent. Looking at some numbers, the US aid clocks to about 10% of Israel's military spending.

Correct Israel doesn't need money, it needs world to look the other way or support what they are doing now.

Why do they even send money to Israel?

Aren't they a fairly wealthy country? It's like sending money to Canada.

Like people legit don't make this connection. The data from the Iron Dome is incredibly valuable. Likely the US is getting data on Bunker busting and tunnel clearing tech.

Don't be so sure
