We all know that the U.S. is in bed with israel but what they are doing between the sheets may not be so obvious. The U.S. has provided over $300 billion to israel since 1948.

Annually it commits $3.8 billion to israel’s weapons cache. Although this figure has increased substantially during the current conflict. 90% of these funds goes straight back to U.S. to buy weapons from large corporations through a system known as Foreign Military Financing (FMF). Think of it like the U.S. giving israel vouchers that can only be spent in U.S. stores. Take the weapons used against the flotilla activists including stun grenades and projectile rounds manufactured by Combined Tactical Systems (CTS) better known by the brand name Combined Systems Inc (CSI). The company, based in

Pennsylvania has supplied tear gas cannisters and other crowd control weapons to israel. The same weapons have also turned up in Bahrain and Egypt during the Arab Spring and in Ferguson during the protests over the death of George Floyd (may he rest in peace and power). CSI isn’t the only contributor to the current torture witnessed by the world.

The prison ship used by israel as a torture chamber was build by Bolinger Mississippi Shipyards. Meanwhile, the U.S. government has done nothing to assist its citizens being beaten by the weapons on ships that their taxes bought.
