Israel pounds Gaza

They often fail to kill kids because the kids are kept home in bomb shelters that each Israeli house seems to have. Israeli soldiers are out away from other citizens. Compare that to Hamas members that surround themselves with woman and children, and then claim Iraelis target civilians. Evidently, the people of Gaza voted for Hamas. They are quiet when Hamas shoots rockets into another country, but it's a different story when those bombs come right back at Hamas members. I don't think the Israelis are like the Arabs. Arabs kill each other all the time, and it's only when they are harmed by Israelis that human life seems all that important to them. Same with other Muslims. Turks and Kurds kill each other all the time, and are proud of it. Soon as Israel started going after their fellow Muslims( Hamas members,) the leader of Turkey brought out the crime against humanity line.

Great. So they should raise their taxes and pay for the military they need to protect them. This is not my problem or any taxpayer in americas problem.

Why should I be paying higher taxes so Israelis and Egyptians can pay lower taxes?

We have a situation where some working class americans are paying taxes to give aid to countries like Israel and Egypt, and there are plenty of wealthy people in their countries living better lives than working class americans. Let their people buy their own weapons. Not my problem.
