Israel as a nation for Jews (noting here that Jesus was a Jew, as was his mother Mary) was created entirely because of the U.S. We have armed and defended Israel ever since. We are also the eagle plucked out of the lion, the U.K., being the fulfillment of prophecy in Rev and Dan.
So frankly, it does not matter what anyone thinks of it, the U.S. will defend Israel, always. And we’ll do a great job of it.
No. Ezekiel 38 clearly states when Israel fights the war with Russia and Iran they will stand alone. It is then that God Himself will fight for them.
I am unclear if this is a result of the war happening after the Rapture, or just the result of a corrupt administration. But Israel will be abandoned by all but God.
Israel was not armed or defended by the USA between 1948 to 1967. In fact, the US placed a weapons embargo AGAINST Israel in their War of Independence.
It was actually the Communist bloc countries that were willing to provide the weapons and armament necessary for Israel to win their War of Independence, funneled through Czechoslovakia. (They thought that Israel might become communist, based off the how the kibbutzim were organized.)
After that, Israel mainly procured it's weaponry from France. It was only after the incredible successes in the Six-Day War did the US even begin to think about supplying weaponry to Israel.
