“We should stop military aid to Israel,” Midland Daily News, 5 Feb 2018: 6A. Online. http://www.ourmidland.com/opinion/voices/article/We-should-stop-military-aid-to-Israel-12551246.php

FULL TEXT

What would you do for the City of Midland with an extra $8.6 million in the yearly budget?

Would you put more money into our schools? Fund healthcare? Improve our infrastructure? Propose a tax cut?

Midland could have an extra $8.6 million in its budget but, instead, our city contributes $8,634,511 in aid to Israel every year. This $8.6 million pays for weapons to bomb Palestinian civilians, including women and children, and subsidizes new Israeli settlements that are illegal according to international law.
