“No one came to your aid”? The US has been staunch allies of Israel since its inception.

No. It has not. The U.S. was the first to recognize Israeli statehood. Then it sat on its thumbs, like most of the world, in the 1948 war, leaving Jews to fight the Arab invasion by themselves. Ditto 1967. Only in the 1970s did we make Israel an ally, and only then to help us fight Russia in the Cold War.

The 1967 war was won with French weaponry, the Mystere and Mirage warplanes in particular. The Czechs supplied the weaponry to fight the 1948 war.

Yessir, you're correct. The U.S. stood idly by in both wars.

SW, initially, yes, but NOT Obama & certainly not this Biden Regime!

Under Trump, YES , “But, but, but Trump” hatred and TDS was a more important battle to fight from the Democrats. And the WOKE Left has been very vocal against Israel and American Jews!

Obama & Biden have made it clear they are less supportive of Israel and more sympathetic to Palestine.
