    Congress is looking at decisions regarding Israel permanently becoming part of our technological development, intelligence and integrating our development of military hardware. The reasoning is obvious, they believe future representation may choose not to give funds to Israel, this way we give them the funds without ever having to get congressional approval.

    So they are voting to give Israel a right to your tax dollars.

    “How much money are we spending on missiles being used by Israel?”

    “We don’t know it’s integrated into our missile development budget, it isn’t a line item”

      They can word it any way they like, but in the US “permanent” requires a constitutional amendment, and even those aren’t necessarily permanent.
