State of California Vs. State of Israel
Israel has been often called the 51st American State, yet Israel does not pay income tax, property tax, sales tax or gasoline tax to America as the people of California do, in fact, just the opposite. California has a population six times greater than Israel, yet Israel receives millions more from California's tax dollars than the people of California do. Israel takes $1,400 US Federal Assistance Per Capita, while the people of California only receive $1,200 US Federal Assistance Per Capita.
We in California need our tax dollars for our schools, roads, medical and social services, natural disasters (fires and earth quakes), and most of all, for our own state's security for each of our towns and cities. California needs to be protected, let the Israelis raise their own taxes to pay for their own actions, don't raise California's taxes so we can give more to Israel.
There are nearly 2 million Americans who are homeless while our tax dollars are going to build homes in illegal settlements in Arab deserts, nearly 13 million children in America are starving, while we give away billions of dollars each year to Israelis who ritually throw away food at alters. Save American lives and your tax dollars, stop throwing away money to Israel.
According to the Christian science monitor, Since 1973, Israel has cost the United States about $1.6 trillion. Top Jewish senators and Jewish congressmen in the US are voting to detour California's tax payer's money to Israel. Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) received $80,500 and Tom Lantos (D-CA) received $36,600 donations from Israeli lobbyists according to the Federal Election Commission.
Action Requested: Contact your local congressman or senator and demand that the money you pay from your taxes is intended to fix your roads, schools, medicare, social security, disaster relief and California's defense against terrorism; "instead of going to Israel, stop giving my money to Israel".
Israel does not help us in the war against terrorism, Israel hurts us by blatantly using American weapons in violation of AECA agreements between both countries which stipulate that Israel not use such weapons against civilian populations, enraging and inflaming the animosity in the Middle East against America, even though Israel can use Israeli weapons since Israel is the 6th largest weapons producer in the world, it consistently showcases American weapons against civilians, spreading the guilt onto America by association.
We need patriotic leaders who will keep America's money in America and care more about American lives than non-Americans!
