Bush gives Israel another $30,000,000,000

US Undersecretary of State Nicholas Burns has signed a deal that will provide Israel with $30,000,000,000 of military aid over the next 10 years.

The Israeli prime minister, Ehud Olmert asked the US envoy to thank President George W Bush and the secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice, for their efforts in bringing about the accord.

It will see Washington transfer $30bn over the next decade, compared to $24bn over the past 10 years. The first payment of $2.55bn will be made in October 2008. Mr Burns called the aid package an "investment in peace",

That is exactly how you stabilize a war torn region...... good to know the taxes are going to good use... NOOOOT!
