CHAPTER FIFTEEN | 2001 – 2026 The $174 Billion Question: What America Bought for Israel Since September 11, 2001, the United States has provided Israel with more than $100 billion in direct aid — the largest cumulative assistance package to any country in American history. This chapter documents what was bought, who voted for it, who funded the people who voted for it, and what the Congressional Research Service says about what the American taxpayer received in return.
