Israel

The situation in Israel is perplexing to say the least. Israel has been at war with its neighbors eight times since it became a state in 1948. The area of Israel is 8,500 sq miles and Palestine is 2,500 sq miles. Many say that Israel is so much more advanced that it doesn't need help from the US to keep Palestine in line. While that is true the only reason Israel survived the wars was because of US help. If the US would announce that it would no longer support Israel the Arab countries with a population of several hundred million would once again see Israel as an easy target and attack. The problem with that is that Israel has nukes and they would use them. Think of Greater Israel as a state within a state. It would be like Texas being a separate country that kept sending rockets into Oklahoma. How would the federal government react. What if the rocket launchers were in populated areas.
