Frustrating seeing these comments. The answer is one simple search away but instead people immediately make dozens of derisive, outraged comments. And simply reading the source would also show that >80% of this money is investments, not grants.

I mean, that is just the average Reddit behaviour lol. It’s easier to be like “UK bad, Israel bad” than do some research.

No. UK good (European brothers, I'll never support confrontation between European nations), but Israel bad. I stand by what I said and I'm glad my posts get downvoted, clear proof we're run from Israel just as Americans. Israel is there because it gets favoured by being in it. I'd rather swap Israel for Japan. They are both non-European nations after all. And again I know exactly what all this stuff means, Israel pays too blah blah but their unis and projects win too because they are strong so they get money blah blah. Still a travesty.

Before we even talk about Japan , I d rather ad Albania/Serbia or even BiH to the project.
