Alwaght - Israeli regime calls on the US for more in military aid. Under $30 billion agreement signed in 2007, Tel Aviv receives $3 billion from America. While the current 10-year agreement between Washington and Tel Aviv expires in 2017, Netanyahu's regime seeks to increase this amount up to $4.5 billion a year under another 10-year deal through 2028, Defense News reported.
Indeed, Israeli regime blackmails the US on the pretext of threats from Iran-P5+1 potential nuclear agreement and Persian Gulf cooperation Council states that have been re-arming rapidly.
Last week, Israeli regime's Haaretz newspaper reported that Tel Aviv begun "preliminary, unofficial contacts regarding special American military aid" to compensate for threats from Iran or potential erosion of its qualitative military edge due to major new arms sales planned for Gulf Cooperation Council members.
"We are always in constant relations with the United States," retired Zionist Maj. Gen. Amos Gilad, told i24 cable news network last week.
But ongoing talks, he said, "are not vis-a-vis the coming agreement" with Iran, about which "our position is well known."
