Two truths follow. First, believe your enemies when they tell you who they are: when they chant “Death to America,” they mean it. Second, what starts with the Jews never ends with the Jews. Hamas’ terror against Israel in the 1990s spilled into New York on 9/11 and beyond. America’s enemies are Israel’s enemies, and both are fighting for the benefit of civilization as a whole.

Israel is also not a passive recipient of technology, but a major exporter and co-developer of it — its cyber technology is widely adopted by the U.S. and NATO. The Iron Dome, among the most successful missile-defense systems in operational history, is a joint U.S.-Israeli venture built with American components, alongside David’s Sling and Arrow. Israeli innovations in drones, cybersecurity and armor have flowed into American systems as much as American funding has flowed into Israeli ones.Tea

It does not stop there. In 2017, it was reported that top Israeli cyber experts had penetrated a small cell of extremist bombmakers in Syria. That was how the U.S. learned ISIS was working on explosives designed to fool airport X-ray machines by looking exactly like laptop-computer batteries.

In another incident, Iran launched a large-scale drone attack on the Al-Tanf base near the Iraq-Syria border, which housed about 200 U.S. troops. The base was evacuated shortly beforehand, due to early warning from Israeli intelligence. No American casualties were reported. The long and profound Israeli-U.S. intelligence cooperation has saved numerous innocent lives. From the most recent Iranian plot to assassinate President Trump, to that regime’s use of crime syndicates in Australia and Europe to attack Iranian dissidents and other civilian targets, Israel is strategically positioned to be the West’s eyes and ears in a dangerous, volatile region filled with hostile forces to freedom and democracy.

Nearly every dollar Israel receives is spent on American-made weapons, aircraft and systems. The money doesn’t leave the U.S. Treasury so much as flow through it, landing with American manufacturers and supporting jobs in all 50 states. Israel Aerospace Industries alone works with more than 800 American suppliers across 44 states. This isn’t charity — it’s an alliance that saves lives through shared intelligence, battle-tested defense systems and a military that never asks for U.S. troops to defend it.Tea
