Senator mcgovern is very sincere when he says that he will try to cut the military budget by 30%. and this is to drive a knife in the heart of israel... jews don't like big military budgets. but it is now an interest of the jews to have a large and powerful military establishment in the united states... american jews who care about the survival of the state of israel have to say, no, we don't want to cut the military budget, it is important to keep that military budget big, so that we can defend israel.
