The US is preparing to fight Israel's war. It is wrong on so many levels. My read of the US foreign incursions, and I have looked at its history of the last 100 years closely, is that most very often the US has been a patsy fighting someone else' war. Many countries have successfully used this "rent a superpower" strategy. They rip the rewards and the US gets the blame. And it always goes like this: some foreign power has a problem. They find a lobby and sympathetic senator that narrates a story the government is ideologically attuned to. That is their in to get congressional approval to send Americans in harm's way. America should make it simple: if there is no mutual defense agreement, then you are on your own. And if there is a mutual defense agreement, then you are expected to align your policy with the US' (not the other way around) and pay half the bills.
