Trump's Aid Halt Motives
The report argues that Donald Trump’s motivation for halting military aid to Israel is not economic, but rather growing hostility toward the Israeli government and Benjamin Netanyahu among the American public, along with electoral considerations. The annual aid amounts to about $4 billion—0.35% of the U.S. defense budget and 0.013% of national income—and also benefits the U.S. defense industry. If support were halted, it could add an annual deficit of 15 billion shekels to Israel’s 2027 budget, potentially forcing the government to introduce new taxes and cut civilian spending.
