One response to “Netanyahu’s on Capitol Hill… He Wants More Money

  1. How dare him come and ask more money when he insulated our President OBAMA ?! Why should our taxes go to any country, before our own Counties,States, People can’t even pay their debts. Netanyahu should apologize to our president, and the killing Palestinian families. No more tax dollars for those who kill our families.
    Our taxes need to take care of our families in the USA. If our government keeps feeding the killers(in our name), better take care of our United States first.
