Obama To Increase Aid To Israel


US presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama is committed to increasing foreign aid to Israel, should he be elected in the November ballot. Obama would honor existing agreements concerning aid to Israel and would work toward "increasing aid to Israel to USD 30 billion over 10 years," a spokeswoman for Obama told Israeli business daily Globes. In the vice presidential debate last week, Obama's running mate Senator Joe Biden said their administration would have to hold back on plans to double foreign aid in general, in light of the financial crisis in the US.
