Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East. Israel is a strategic ally of the United States. For years we told the Soviet Union to allow free emigration and now that the Soviet Union is no more and Russia and the Ukraine are allowing free emigration. we have a moral obligation. I think. to support the loan guarantees. The important thing is this. loan guarantees will cost the U.S. Taxpayers not one penny. It is not foreign aid. it is only guaranteeing a loan. It enables Israel to borrow the money to build housing for refugees at cheaper rates because it is guaranteed by the United States. Israel has never defaulted on a loan and will not default now. It will cost the taxpayers of America not one penny.
