Obama: My govt. supported Israel most
[Iran Press TV] The US president takes pride in his administration's having contributed the most generous cash handouts to the Israeli regime in history, despite the dire economic conditions dominating the global scene.

 actions against Tel Aviv. It also provides Tel Aviv with nearly USD 3 billion in military aid each year.
