The United States is honor-bound to protect and defend Israel. The 1948 Treaty that created Israel, also named the US as the guarantor of that nation’s independence.
maybe I am old fashioned, but the honor of our nation means something and it is not to be thrown away so carelessly. IMO
Please cite that provision in the 1948 Treaty for us here, would you? Thanks.
“The United States is honor-bound to protect and defend Israel.”
I am not aware of any mutual defense treaty between Israel and US. Did the Senate ratify this treaty? I think you’re misinformed.
In any case, if a war against Iran would be about Israel’s interests - which you seem to be implying - will Israel commit troops, planes and ships? If not, I don’t think it’s really about Israel’s interests.
