i-node, you have your facts wrong. Please go read up the 6 Day War on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org Israel can defend itself just fine. In fact, despite all their disadvantages, they are the 900 lb gorilla in the region and American taxpayers make sure they remain that way. So the question is why? I think we should be friendly with Israel and I'd go so far as to continue our mutual defense treaty with them. An attack on Israel is an attack on the US. However, why do we give them $8B a year? Why don't we just sell them arms and tech and stay out of the region? We should be spending our money on getting oil independent, so we don't have to care about those crazy Arabs and Persians. Israel is only a strategic US ally as long as we are dependent on oil. Become oil independent and they are no longer strategic.
