Until 1956, America treated Israel not much differently from other friendly states.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There is an alliance between Israel and the United States, and it has never been stronger than at the time of George W. Bush.
Israel never interferes in the domestic issues of any other country. It's not our matter; it's not our policy.
If you look at military and intelligence positions from the 1950s, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has always been against American national interests.
Israel deserves special treatment from the United States, both for historical reasons and because there can be no regional peace without a secure Israel.
Israel must take decisions that are good to Israel. We must not try to satisfy anyone else, including our closest ally, the United States of America.
It's not only in Israel's interest but in America's as well to stand with one of its closest and important allies.
The United States is a strong and ardent ally of Israel. The fact of the matter is that friends can disagree. I think what's important is that world leaders are able to sit down with one another, have frank conversations and move forward.
Cooperation with the U.S. is the basis on which all Israeli foreign policy is built.
Part of what makes America great is that we stand by the countries that share our values around the world. That's why throughout its history, the State of Israel has had no greater friend than the United States of America.
The relationship between Israel and the United States is a bond of - it's just a very powerful bond. It was, it is, and will be and will continue to be.
