In light of the heightened security considerations, 20 billion is the correct amount for now.

The amount of American money needed to ensure the existence of Israel is ZERO dollars.
Israel has about 60-100 atomic bombs. That is all they need to have their existence ensured.
And, in case you haven't noticed, the Arab Spring is causing the Muslims to kill each other, not Israel. If anything, Israel should encourage the Arab Spring and let the Arab factions bleed each other white.

What horseshit.
First I didn't ask why the US is responsible for security all over the world. I asked only about Israel. And providing security all over the world is even more insane than providing security just for Israel.
And your insane standard - "To whom much is given, much is expected" - will get us involved in wars all over the world. And yet I don't remember you advocating for the US to put troops and money into wars in Africa and Asia that don't threaten Israel.
Why is it that you advocate socialism in the US-Israel relationship when you oppose it everywhere else.
You do realize that the saying: "To whom much is given, much is expected" is typically used by the left to demand that high-income earners be taxed at ever higher rates in order to redistribute income, don't you?
And here you are using it to advocated the transfer of American blood and treasure to the preferred country of your choice.
