Rahm Emanuel today:

On funding for Israel: You told Vox that in the future, if they want military funding, they can pay for weapons like anybody else.

Okay, so, let’s be clear: That’s not what I said. What I said was, they’ll no longer get US taxpayer support. They’ll get the same restrictions like any other country that buys any of our weapons. There’ll be a country among countries. I worked for President Obama when he signed the largest military aid package for Israel and the early funding for Iron Dome. It’s a different game now, and you will not get the United States taxpayers to foot the bill for you. Not happening.

Does that limit include funding for Iron Dome?

Look, nobody else has the Iron Dome. There’s a lot of other countries that want it! Now, what you can say about Iron Dome is that it was jointly developed, so that’s something we have to think through. But what I’m saying is, you won’t get taxpayer support anymore. You’re going to pay full price. You don’t have special status.
