I am aware of most of those agreements, but we do not have a mutual defense agreement whereby an attack against Israel is considered an attack against the United States and vice versa. There is no such thing in our relationship similar to Article 5 of the NATO Treaty, i.e, an attack against one is an attack against all. Article 5 was implemented for the first time after 9/11, which is why NATO is in Afghanistan.
