Should we build a beautiful, powerful wall between the United States and Israel? Should we ask Benjamin Netanyahu to stay in Tel Aviv and stop manipulating political zombies like the Trump administration?
Trump supporters like Alex Jones and Ann Coulter (In Trump We Trust[1]) are screaming their lungs out saying that there ought to be a wall between the United States and Mexico, but those people do not want to see that there ought to be a political wall between the United States and Israel. Coulter in particular would love to have Netanyahu as the president of the United States. Alex Jones constantly perpetuates crazy things, such as the Arabs control Hollywood.
But what should we do with the country that has literally been bankrupting the United States since the 1940s? Bloomberg declares that a wall between Mexico and the United States would cost between “$8 billion to $67 billion.”[2]
I can assure you that this would be an expensive wall—but not as expensive as the trillions upon trillions of dollars we have wasted in the Middle East for Israel. In 2016, the United States announced that it would give Israel at least $38 billion in military aid alone.[3] This is the country that has about 8 million people, which is fewer than the state of New Jersey. There is more:
“According to the Congressional Research Service, the amount of official US aid to Israel since its founding in 1948 tops $121 billion (adjusting for inflation, $233.7 billion as of March 2013), and in the past few decades it has been on the order of $3.1 billion per year. (In 2014, for example, this amounted to $8.5 million every single day.)”
That doesn’t even count the $3 billion we give to Israel every single year. What has the United States gotten in return? A six-trillion dollar war in Iraq,[4] perpetual wars in the Middle East, and a perennial hatred of America.[5]
The Israelis, the Neocons and marionettes in the United States don’t give a damn about Americans or innocent civilians in the Middle East. They just want to continue their essentially diabolical/Talmudic agenda.
To just give you a classic example: when Madeleine Albright was asked about the fact that half a million children had died due to the U.S. invasion, she was unflinchingly unmoved by the lives of those children. The interviewer asked, “Is the price worth it?” Albright: “I think that is a very hard choice, but we think the price is worth it.”
But if you think that this is all there is to the Neocon ideology, the Zionist Kingdom, and the American Empire, then you ain’t seen nothing yet. As Mark Dankof has recently pointed out during his Pres TV interview, The US government has been aiding child sexual abuses in places like Afghanistan for years. Dankof declared:
“You can go all the way back to the end of World War ll. This American government that has been aiding and abetting these child sexual abuses in Afghanistan is the same American government … that is supporting all of these Israeli atrocities in Palestine and Gaza, this is the same American government that has been working with ISIS (ISIL or Daesh) and al-Qaeda-affiliated organizations to attempt to overthrow the legitimate government of Syria.
“And this is the same American government that has been making overt threats to attack Iran because this is what [Israeli Prime Minister] Benjamin Netanyahu and the Zionist ‘state’ of Israel want the American government to do.”
There have been at least 5,735 cases of child sexual abuses in Afghanistan between 2010 and 2016, and the “US military has given a free pass,” which certainly breaches “the Leahy Law which bars the US military from providing funds, training or other aid to foreign military units that are involved in serious human rights abuses.”
Again, crimes like this happen because there is no wall of separation between the United States and Israel.

forgot to add “by unsing logic and critical thinking”. my fingers sometimes don´t work anymore the way I want them to.
Perhaps building a Firewall in your mind and soul is enough to keep you from their BS
The only holocaust that seems to matter is the zionists hoax, is perpetuated today. Might add Tillerson made a speech in Poland today as older participants wore stripped scarves to remind them of the uniforms they remember wearing. The scarves were probably made in occupied territories of Palestine. That justified holocaust.
