There security is so far and above ours that I would be happy to abolish ours and use theirs.

Let's face it, though: They have a relatively small set of "enemies". It is rather easy for them to concentrate on just those people who mean them harm.

Our enemies are EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD, including right here in the USA.

I believe almost all of those who would seek to harm the US are also enemies of Israel. So I would disagree. We have probably many enemies within the nation but so does Israel. They have a large number of Islamic radicals within the green line including several members of the Knesset. In addition they have several millions of enemies living within 5 miles of their borders. Even so they do a tremendous job of keeping track of members of terrorists groups within and without Israel and only they and our security forces know how much intelligence they provide us. I suspect we owe a great deal to their forces for having prevented many an attack against us thru the years.

Our enemies are EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD, including right here in the USA.
The essentials...
1) First and foremost, who is the foreign enemy? Is it a specific nation of people? A specific race or religion? Define "our enemies everywhere in the world" to the best of your abilities.
2) If it is a foreign enemy that is stateside, how did they get here in the first place? Were they allowed in or invited in?
3) What exactly is a domestic enemy? Could it be someone who "promotes democracy" instead of a republican form of government as the Constitution dictates as the law of the land?
Your statement is very vague, nonspecific and overly generalized.
