>>2. Forge a defense pact with Israel (if there isn't one >>already) stating that we will consider any attack on >>Israel as an attack on the U.S.

Last time I checked, the U.S. Military exists to protect the United States, and Israel isn't part of the United States. If they want such protection, they need to apply for statehood and be willing to pay Federal taxes.

We did the same thing with Europe during the Cold War. A Soviet attack on one of our allies was an attack on the US. America ought to do all it can to protect its democratic friends, especially Israel.
