Yet more indications that the Israelis don't care what the US says, as long as they keep receiving checks and arms.
The US recognizes Israel as a close ally in the Middle East. Fair enough. But these actions also show that Israel will go its own way when necessary. Why don't we?
Any action (real, measurable, demonstrable) would be a step away from the one to one identification with Israel which is central to the motivation of many jihadist groups' messages.
As to whether any distancing would play into the jihadists' hands, the answer is probably. But to what end? Will they start to kidnap us, cut off our heads< and maybe try to blow us up with roadside bombs?
Oh. You mean they are doing that. Already. I see.
