    Well because they are a very powerful ally and they have been for a while. As much as it sucks that they are doing horrible things in Gaza, we have had them in our corner since the 40s and they are closer. With nukes. It’s a strategic move.

      Ah yes such a powerful ally that we have to subsidize their defense. Such a powerful ally that they haven’t given the US any military support since the cold fucking war. Truly the strongest ally ever.

        Having an ally doesn’t mean you have to things sent to you. It means when there is a fight they are on your side. Which is what Russia is trying to stoke. I mean you can be angry with me, it doesn’t change what their plans are and how they are playing it.

          It means when there is a fight they are on your side.

          Illustrate how Israel was on our side in any conflict in the past 30 years.

            Dude. Are purposely being inept? I’m not explaining foreign policy to someone that refuses to look up any kind of history.
