“Does she actually think Israel would be safer for her?”
The expression “from the frying pan and into the fire” comes to mind.
We have our own army, police and government (euch!). It really is the safest place on earth, because for all its faults, the government knows what has to be done against terrorists, and the US is still undergoing a learning process in that regard, and the prestigious institutions are not to be trusted. It’s safe, if you can live with missiles, to which I extend my middle finger whenever we have incoming (not in months).
