Your Tax $$ Help Kill Palestinians; U.S.-Backed Murder

Israel is ordering another 50 advanced F-16 jets, from U.S. military suppliers, similar to the jets it has been using to bomb and strafe Palestinian towns in which thousands of innocent men, women and children have been killed. As has been the case in the past, the $2 billion purchase will be financed by your dollars. The order will not be delivered for at least a year, pending the arrival of another round of F-16 requested by the Israeli military, giving the Mideast nation 100 of the high-tech U.S. fighter jets. Critics have blasted the United States for supplying Israel with jets that it uses brazenly to murder Palestinians in violation of a U.S. agreement stipulating that the jets should only be used in defense.
