Can we pledge 3 billion to our homeless problem? Can we pledge 3 billion into helping the outrageous home prices/rent hikes? I feel like we keep pledging all this money to causes that we have no place in. ESPECIALLY A RELIGIOUS WAR!!!
More western media only showing one side of the conflict and not the actual genocide ongoing.
We got a plethora of starving children some homeless in the US yet we send billions to these other countries for weapons and “aid”. Makes no sense whatsoever
D*** lady tell the enemy everything
I feel like this defense system is extremely exploitable. They could just fire in rockets whose guidance systems don't kick in till after the radar determines it's going to land in the desert, then at the last minute it's guidance systems kick in and take it to its target. I hope there's contingencies for that situation
Israel has Iron dome and Hamas has Mosque dome.
That's crazy. Sending a country billings a year for defense when children in your own country have to go to school hungry everyday or only eat once a day. The government doesn't have any money. They take our money and give it to other countries to further some goal it has later on that me and the rest of you will never know about or benefit from
Iron dome is overrated so are IDF and Mossad 😅😅
NBC should be called out by the UN and human rights advocates for propagandizing the murder of innocent non-militant Palestinian civilians. NBC supports this sick genocide like a sports event with death score stats and tutorials. Sick!
Missile Command! 😅
I read the interceptor rockets cost $50,000 each, which means Israel has spend about 225 million dollars shooting down rockets.
Unfortunately Each missile must be a lot more expensive than the cheap rockets they intercept.
Whatever. If 4billion dollars a year can't protect a nuclear power with a robust air force from Hamas, who's to say throwing more money at them will change anything?
Just goes to show what we can achieve when we work together…
Molly Hunter explains why just because it's called the "iron dome" it doesn't mean it's actually an iron dome ! Mind boggling report.🤯
Yet we don't see a single iron dome rocket flying or it's trail?.. something definitely fishy about this whole thing
Picture, if you will, a world where mainstream media is created by Artificial Intelligence.
You are in the Twilight Zone.
2.5B $??? Seriously! 😡 like they don't have anywhere else to put money towards…
How about saving lives here in US. We got plenty of that…! Start with economy…
Why do we have to pay for their security? Oh yeah they make our guns right? Instead of sending money to terrorist we should use that money for student loan debt here in our country
No wonder our info structure in USA is so antiquated or non existent- Billions upon billions tax dollars sent to religious wars of Israel
This is some 'Star Wars' ish.
It didn't
Best money ever spent
Sending Billions. When our own infrastructure is crumbling
its like beautiful fireworks
So nice of president Biden to say he smssnsa blinksn irona wink blamm blam, pure generosity.
So why it doesn't work against russian weapons?😂😂
Why do we have to pay everybody that’s in trouble, we don’t even help our own citizens with basic needs.
Other countries can arm themselves, but the US govt wants to take arms away from its own people
Not that I don't sympathize with them but how about you help us here at home first
I'm scared need to stock up on can foods, stay strong
There is an Iron Dome protecting the ENTIRE Continental USA.
