Another $20 billion ?

Israel may ask U.S. for $20 billion more in security aid, Barak says - Haaretz Daily Newspaper | Israel News

Damn, those Israelis aren't shy.

"It might be wise to invest another $20 billion to upgrade the security of Israel for the next generation or so," he said, adding: "A strong, responsible Israel can become a stabilizer in such a turbulent region."

Israel doesn't need any more US taxpayer money. They have been the strongest nation in the region for 50 years and really haven't been much of a stabilizer, in fact, many would say they are responsible for the turbulence in the region. Maybe they should put a little more emphasis on the "responsible" part of "a strong, responsible Israel".
