US aid: Israel vs. US tornado victims

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) submitted a budget of $56.3 billion for fiscal year 2011,

the bulk of which to be used for security, terrorism prevention, & immigration enforcement.

FEMA comes under DHS power.

Of this budget, a paltry $1.95 billion is earmarked for DHS's Disaster Relief Fund.

Compare this to a requested $3 billion in foreign aid to Israel for 2011.

Which includes 

- $2.75 billion for the purchase of 20 F-35's 

&

-  $205 million for up to 10 'Iron Dome' batteries.

25% of aid will be used by Israel to purchase military equipment from Israeli manufacturers.

A benefit allowed to no other recipient of US foreign aid.

So we are giving Israel, a billion dollars more this year, 

then we have alotted for our disaster relief here at home?

Essentially we are funding more money to aid in a foreign bodies genocide , 

rather than using it to save the lives of American citizens here at home?
