US Army scraps $1B Iron Dome project after Israel ...
Maybe the US should withhold the 3.8e9 per annum military aid from Israel until they provide source code for a system they funded. You know, quid pro quo.

US aid must be spent on US companies. It all goes back into the US economy.

It doesn't have to be the military industry, and I know first-hand it's used for other companies as well. For example, buying computers.
