The Federal Government of the United States is not the only level of government prioritizing Israeli concerns over those of Americans.
New York, Texas and Florida have purchased more than 150 million dollars in Israeli government debt.
Israel issued 200 million dollars in bonds, seeking to raise funds to prosecute its war against the Palestinians, and American states have purchased nearly all of these bonds.
New Jersey also buys tens of millions in Israeli bonds, despite rapidly declining tax revenues.
Illinois is going to buy more than 10 million dollars in Israeli securities, despite the fact the state is the third most indebted in the US.
Arizona is yet another state which is buying up Israeli government bonds, despite the fact the state faces a 400 million dollar shortfall this fiscal year.
None of these investments are economically sound, as Israel recently had its credit rating downgraded, and is facing another likely downgrade in its rating.
Americans are left without healthcare, without childcare, with underfunded social services, public transit networks which are being curtailed, and a generally faltering economy.
