First of all, we have a treaty with Israel to protect them from extinction thru military transfers.

That doesn't mean the subject is closed - some treaties have exit clauses, and any treaty can be renegotiated by its signatories.

Second, Goode DOES single-out Israel

How so?

and third as long as we protect Israel we have some credibility to our other allies...if we have any left.

I'm less worried about our credibility to our allies than theirs to us.
