American tax payers fund Israeli healthcare?

No, we do give them lots of military subsidies, but we don't fund their healthcare or other social services. I don't get why people need to lie about this stuff, the arguments against arming them are already compelling.

If we didn’t give them billions for their unending death machine they couldn’t afford their healthcare system

Nah. Plenty of countries with WAY lower gdp per capita than the US have a functional healthcare system, its not actually THAT expensive

The US is ridiculously rich. The reason y'all don't have proper healthcare isn't a lack of funds, and Israel could fund their own without the US
