Stop the $38,000,000,000 give away

August 31, 2018 in News by RBN Staff

We want to alert you to our latest report on the $38 billion to Israel package making its way through Congress right now!

The current bill, “United States-Israel Security Assistance Authorization Act of 2018” H.R.5141, has passed the Senate and is in committee in the House. When Congress is back in session on Sept. 4th, it is expected that this legislation will move quickly.

Please contact your representatives now!

Do The Math!

A $1 bill is approximately 0.004 inches thick.
A stack of 250 bills is an inch high.
It would take $8,166,00 dollar bills to equal the height of the Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building.
A stack as high as Mt. Everest would take 87,087,000 dollars.
With 3.8 billion dollar bills stacked up, you could reach the International Space Station in orbit.
This military aid package, would give Israel
10 times that much!

Even though the House is currently out of session, these politicians continue to be active and your phone calls and emails will reach them and will show them that we’re paying attention to this legislation.

They’ll see that Israel partisans’ efforts to pass this massive aid package without any debate or public awareness whatsoever is being challenged!

Please also contact your local media and ask them to cover this legislation! In addition, you can write letters to the editor telling your community about it. Here are a few excellent examples: (one, two, three)

Thank you for helping us wake people up to this legislation and to the facts on Palestine,
