What do you mean, who did what?

After $200,000,000,000 from the US they should be however the US would still be sending aid and weapons is my guess.

He doesn't have any choice unless he decided to go against the only country the US actually answers to despite the $200,000,000,000 in aid Israel has received over the years, it appears completely unconditional.

@guys5240 In Wikipedia it says $ 146 billion since 1976 not inflation adjusted which means at least the number I gave probably much higher in today's money, 74% is to be spent on US arms, so a lot just cash. That's a lot of money for a country with only 10 million people today. The US gets nothing in return, Israeli companies wouldn't donate stuff to the US , they might sell things.

@guys5240 No only Israel receives aid, you might be talking about the F35 Joint Strike Fighter, companies are paid by Lockheed Martin some of which are in Israel I would expect and then the actual planes sold to allies for a profit. Israel assuming the arrangement is still the same has a certain amount of money they receive in aid from the US that they can purchase those planes or whatever they want but must be military equipment manufactured in the US. No idea how the contractors for components of the F35 were decided on but had to be allies of course.

@guys5240 yeah I did find an article about it, seems your version is the most modified. Components come from all over the world from about 6 countries plus different parts of the US and then manufactured in Texas it seems. Best of luck and hope somehow Israel/Palestine becomes peaceful one day.

Less people have been killed than a single bad weekend in Chicago or Detroit or New Orleans etc. by your standard the US is fighting an eternal war with gangs.

The UN has 5 permanent members of the security council with veto power, not much the rest of the world can do if they don't agree.

@jibreelmeddah6136 My personal opinion if both sides had aid cut off other than food and medicine if required , they might be more willing to reach an agreement, at the moment there is no repercussions due to any actions, in fact this might increase aid.
