The United States-Israel Free Trade Agreement is a trade pact between the State of Israel and the United States established in 1985 that lowers some barriers to trade in some goods.

Same as NAFTA.  It's not a true Fred Trade agreement, but it's better than nothing.




edit-I wonder how the anti-Zionists that favor free trade will vote here.  So torn, so torn.

Against, it screwed over American Industries. Also another example of how Israel squanders our friendship on a routine basis while both parties do nothing but enable it.

Pretty much explains why this should never have been signed and AIPAC are zionist traitors.

I'm not beholden to Israel on everything.  I'm an American first.

I love free trade but hate Israel.  I may have voted to replace this with a free trade agreement with Iran

     I support free trade with all countries that we are not hostile with. I guess that begs the question: does the attack on the U.S.S. Liberty constitute hostilities for the purpose of such an agreement?

The USS Liberty incident was 2 decades before the FTA.

Yeah but they still illegally spied on us before we negotiated the FTA. Which gave them an unwarranted advantage.

Yea. I oppose free-trade with Turkey, however, on moral and ethical grounds.
