Yeah, it seems kind of stupid. While I am sympathetic to Israel's whole situation, the whole thing does seem like a pointless money sink.
Though I did think of another reason why we probably throw so much money at them.
The US might get a lot of info on Islamist terrorist cells from Mossad.
When you consider just how much we spend on intellegence, it might actually be a good deal.

Though seeing as I find our general drone wars and intellegence strikes into soverign countries without their permission illegal and often self defeating, it doesn't make the point for me.
Other people it might though.
