I didn’t know Israel was the 51st state.

Neither is South Korea, or Taiwan, or several other countries with which we have defense agreements. Same with NATO. Do you renege on your contracts?

Oh wait. You're not singling out Israel's defense agreement to ignore, are you? Pat, is that you?

[Colonel Kangaroo]

No, I'm not singling out Israel. All these treaties, those Cold War relics, should be repudiated as the special one time case of a militant monolithic Marxism and a war-devastated world that led to their signing no longer exist. These are the ultimate entangling alliances that George Washington warned us against.

We got the world though the Cold War. We don't owe anybody a thing.
