Ron, I'm pro-Israel, but the Marshall plan was maybe decent for America bc it preserved Europe / denied USSR access to European manpower and factories that they'd get if they took it over. Israel falling would be a tragedy, but wouldn't much harm US long term interests.

You're confusing two issues I was trying to separate. The Marshall Plan was an example of how foreign aid can benefit the US - promote our interests. The empirical question then becomes, when does it and when does it not?

ok...but then perhaps I'm NOT confusing the two issues, but applying a razor to exactly the same fault line that you're cleaving at?
