Israel is not an ally, not even a “strategic asset”. In fact, Israel is a strategic liability, an intelligence adversary and a black hole for US aid money.
"....In fact, there is no agreement between the US and Israel regarding defense. U.S.-Israel bilateral economic relations are codified in a number of treaties and agreements, including the 1985 U.S.-Israel Free Trade Agreement (FTA), but there is no treaty in place to deal with defense...."
There is no publicly known treaty, now.
However, George Galloway as soon as he entered parliament used his parliamentary privilege to all but reveal that there IS a secret defence treaty between the UK (a US vassal state) and Israel.
I'd be willing to bet that the entire NATO has a one-way treaty to serve Israel's needs. Note:
- ALL of them continue to send weapons to Israel despite even local courts like the Dutch ones ordering a cessation of these exports due to the ICJ declaration that Israel is committing Genocide. Yet all of them are still sending Israel weapons: Germany, Sweden, Norway, UK, Germany, all of them. That's not a random happening.
- several of them participated in shielding Israel from the Iranian symbolic retaliatory attack
- In recent months it was revealed the Netherlands has covert troops in Lebanon. Why? I think its the same reason.
Most likely the reason for this secret treaty is that many Arab client states are also in defense treaties with the US, and it would not be palatable for them to be along side Israel in a public treaty.
But if WW III breaks out I assure you there is a shadow NATO in which Israel is their attack dog in the Middle East against Iran, Yemen, Lebanon, Syria etc
"Zionist doctrine dictates that Israel must forever and always remain the perennial “victim”
Exactly. How else could they manipulate the US and other Western nations into doing their bidding--even when it's to ignore and condone an outright genocide of the Palestinians.
I call the sickness these manipulative people suffer from "zionarcissism". Everything and everyone must stop and give them whatever they want or they throw a temper tantrum of epic proportions. (More about zionarcissism:
Great demonstration! Israel is «the cordial enemy» of the USA, the turbulent offspring to which everything is forgiven in advance, and to which nothing can be refused under penalty of vicious and deleterious reprisals. The worst is the US’s tolerance of this bulky and inexhaustible outgrowth. This evil grip is exercised mainly through a well-oiled mechanism of rewards and sanctions that make it impossible to reach a position of responsibility ...
without a total submission to the “tiny ally”. In fact, US foreign policy, particularly in the Middle East, is developed in the Israeli Knesset… This blind submission seems irreversibly and uncontrollably inscribed in the genome of US institutions to the detriment of their own interests…. The cure?… is hypothetical and difficult genetic manipulation difficult to imagine…. for now.
Truth!

U.S. is a free ATM machine and a veto vote in the UN!

You’re right. Israel is not our ally, it is our master. Our “elected” leaders are its puppets.
