A U.S. $38 billion aid package to Israel continues a special relationship of war profiteering. The White House has described the recent $38 billion promised aid package to Israel, apportioned each year as $3.3 billion in Foreign Military Financing and $500 million in missile defense assistance over the course of 10 years, as an "unshakable commitment to Israel's security." A better description would have been the White House's unshakable commitment to Boeing and Lockheed Martin's quarterly earnings.
