You are only looking at the short term...Israel is definately a Super War Power especially with American made weaponry. Israel was an American outpost after WWII to protect our strategic interests in the area, namely oil.
Our reliance on ME oil is only 18% in this area. By arming Israel to protect them from the Islamic Horde Our "made in the USA bombs" make Muslims our enemies...
Its time for America to serve its own Interests and let the Europeans, the Israelis, and Arabs to pay for their strategic interests and end war and spend that money here.
That's Our National Interest.
Israel and the U.S will ALWAYS be allies, you people need to understand that.
The only way Israel will cease to exist is if you nuke her ! But any country that does that will cease to exist as well....
Nation States NEVER have permanent friends or enemies, only permanent Interests.
When US elites no longer need the Jewish State it will vanish as quickly as White South Africa or South Vietnam.
Nuclear weapon are NOT the likely option:
"SWIFT links 8,740 financial institutions in 209 countries. Without access to SWIFT and its interbank payment network, countries are unable either to pay for imports or to receive payment for exports.
In short, no payment no trade.
"Should it come to a point where trade sanctions are imposed on Israel, it may be able to evade them.
"Instead of chasing trade sanctions-busters and plugging loopholes, it is both faster and much more effective to suspend the payment system."
