        I don’t know if that’ll make a significant enough dent. Looking at some numbers, the US aid clocks to about 10% of Israel’s military spending.

      But he said he was convinced that “the Israelis are going to do everything in their power to avoid the killing of innocent civilians.”

      Don’t be so sure
