Something that needs to be understood: Israel is a U.S. protectorate, not an "ally."
A national alliance is not a one-way street. It presumes a mutually protective capability, which does not exist in our relationship with Israel. We support Israel militarily and financially. Israel does absolutely nothing significant for us -- nor is it in a position to.
So lets back off with the slippery propaganda. I am anti-Islam, which means I stand with Israel against the Moslem world. But that doesn't mean Israel is a military ally of the U.S. Israel is in no position to stand with us in a significant military conflict. It is too small, too vulnerable, and too politically sensitive.
Bottom line: Israel needs the U.S. The U.S. does not need Israel. In fact we would be better off without any affiliation with Israel.
