You see ... that's the American Way ... we don't like to see free people attacked by tyrants ... we help them fight back. And if they can't fight back ... we do the job for them ... as we did in WWI ... WWII ... Korea ... Vietnam ... Grenada ... Kuwait.
Fortunately ... the 6 million Israelis are quite capable of kicking butt against hundreds of millions of their enemies ... so we've never had to do the fighting for them.
There ... that's the answer you were looking for.

So Israel doesn't have their own money? It didn't look like Ariel Sharon was missing too many meals. Stop with the american way nonsense. It sounds like your first loyalty isn't even to america. Your right we never had to fight for them, people like my grandfather just had to go over and save them from the Nazis. Now groups like AIPAC are lobbying for the US to take on Iran. Maybe groups like AIPAC should realize in america the first priority is america.
If Israel was smart they would move. Find somewhere else to live. Any rational person can see technology will eventually allow some extremists to blow up their little country. It is inevitable.
