This is some pretty convoluted reasoning. Netanyahu implies that the U.S. needs to fork over yet more billions in U.S. taxpayers' dollars because Israel supports the U.S. vis a vis Iraq. However, it is Israel which will benefit more than any other nation if/when the U.S. moves against Iraq. Instead of gratitude we see yet more pressure for more money.

I am not at all sure Israel will benefit from Gulf War II. It is very likely that Saddam Hussein will fire more, bigger, better missiles at Israel compared to 1991, and this time they will likely have chemical or biological weapons. Tell me how this benfits Israel.
