The next five recipients of US aid after Israel are:

Egypt, Jordan, West Bank/Gaza, Ethiopia, and South Sudan.

Are these countries listed in the platform? They don't appear at the link you provided.

Aid to Egypt, Jordan, and the West Bank/Gaza was equal to the amount of aid given to Israel in 2013.
