I believe that the time has already come. Israel does not need more bombs for Gaza. The United States should stop paying for this. What Mr. Netanyahu consistently fails to acknowledge that the American people are paying for this war, a war that most Americans do not support. It is their tax dollars that have purchased the bombs, tanks, artillery shells, machine guns and ammunition that have been used by Israel in what has become a war not just against Hamas, but a war against the Palestinian people.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ays-arp-under-posts-container ays-arp-elegant-layout \" id=\"ays-arp-under-posts-container-4196-69ede9e207ab0\"  data-id=\"69ede9e207ab0\"
