The US does a lot for Israel, what does the USA get in return?
Israel is an ally. It is part of the defense of the US presence in the region. The fleet takes leave in Israel, performs joint exercises with its air force. Stores weapons on Israeli soil. Business, weapons tech, medical tech, and other types of research is shared between Israel and the US. Then there is the value of the friendship itself. Many Christians and Jews are very involved in the survival of the state of Israel. Is the value of friendship equal what the US gets in return? I think it does. Others say it doesn't.
You will get arguments on both sides. On FR, more. On other forums less. On some forums, none.
