Original Note:
False, most of Israeli GDP isn't funded by the US. Israeli GDP in 2023 is $564.15 billion (nominal)¹, the American funding to Israel in 2023 is around $18 billions² ³(~3.5 billions in previous years³). Therefore, American funding is 3.2% of Israeli GDP. 1.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Israel 2.https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/2023/11/3/us-house-passes-14-5bn-military-aid-package-for-israel 3.https://www.axios.com/2023/11/04/us-israel-aid-military-funding-chart
