I don't think you really answered the question, sic, Hypothetically, suppose Israel wasn't there. What is the downside to the US? Perhaps because there is no downside to the US. When one closely examines the claim that the US supports Israel because it's in US interests it turns how to be a hollow claim. For many years no one really cared to examine it because all it cost us was a few billion a year. Now it's costing us that many times over plus thousands of US lives in Iraq. Now people ask and examine the claim. We better come up with a better reason. Isn't the underlying reason why Israel never supports a UN peacekeeping missing is because it's not in Israel's interest to do so? jttmab
