07/30/2007: "New US aid to Israel incenses Muslims, preparing for jihad"

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert announced a new $30 billion US defense package to Israel Sunday and voiced satisfaction over Washington's plan to supply state-of-the-art weapons to Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states as a counterweight to Iranian influence. The aid boost to Israel has been widely seen as a US bid to help allay Israeli concerns over a package of arms sales, that could be worth some $20 billion over the next decade, which Washington is preparing for Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states.

[ 9/11 happened because you sent aid to Israel, and not to Arab countries. You could get by with no aid to either. 20-to-30 compromise is better but still will provoke ire. ]
