This bill, it's just a waste of time and money. Why are we focusing on helping Israel with unmanned systems when we have so many issues here at home that need attention? It's ridiculous. This bill is not going to benefit the American people in any way. It's just going to further entangle us in foreign affairs that we should not be involved in. The long term affects of this bill will only serve to drain our resources and distract us from the real problems facing our country.
