i'm mattia posan, the us israeli genocidal war. the gaza strip is costing lives and it is costing the israelis a pretty penny, or should i say shekel, as israel continues its on slot spending, how about the us assistance, how instrumental is it to israel's economy? washington spends $3.3 billion dollars annually in military budgets and additional $500 million for israel's missile defense, and more recently the white house is pushing for 14 billion dollars in aid to israel for early 2024. from 2016 to 2020, the united states gave israel $146 billion dollars in military aid, not adjusted for inflation, according to congressional research service data, and some experts estimate the total value of the aid adjusted for inflation to be $236 billion dollars, but the us is going beyond its military aid in order to save israel's economy, this was evident in what the us president signed in israel before the year was out in 2023. the us extended the terms and privileges of mutual trade free of customs for israel, including many agricultural products. the us extended this for one year until decem

i'm mattia posan. one of the factors which have affected the israeli economy in a big way is the employees factor. israel is faced staffing shortages in a number of sectors, for example, as many as 7 nationalis make up the largest share of the agricultural workforce have fled israel. the israeli ministry of agriculture has proposed a plan to hire 8,00 palestinians from the west bank, but far right minister, itmar bengever has rejected that citing security risk. it is reported that india plans to send 10 thousand construction workers to israel for contracts that would last one to five years. the agreement would allow 42,00 indian workers to go to israel for work. one of the ways to gauge the number of israelies disengaged from the israely economy is through how many people are receiving unemployment benefits. based a december 10th report, 173,000 settlers have requested unemployment benefits since october. israeli companies are facing shortages across the board due to the deployment of about 300,000 peo
