More US Money for ’’Israel’s’’ Iron Dome
Source: AFP, Edited by moqawama.org
The United States would spend an additional $680 million through 2015 to strengthen "Israel's" short-range Iron Dome under a plan crafted by Republicans from the House of Representatives.
Two congressional staff members disclosed Friday that "the figure could put election-year pressure on President Barack Obama's administration to spell out what it deems suitable support for the "Iron Dome"."
"The Republican-controlled Armed Services Committee, which begins crafting a fiscal 2013 war budget next week, plans millions more for the system designed to intercept short-range rockets and mortars," according to a congressional aide.
The money would be in addition to the $205 million that the Obama administration and Congress agreed to in a special request in the 2011 budget and would cover several years.
According to sources, the budget plan comes as the Obama administration tries to dissuade "Israel" from launching a unilateral strike against Iran and ahead of US Presidential elections.
It is worth mentioning that supporting "Israel" is sacred to US top officials and institutions.
"The security of "Israel" is a top priority of President[Barak] Obama and Secretary (Leon) Panetta," the Pentagon said last month.
