U.S. Aid to Israel Creates an Ironclad Bond
(Tablet) Maj.-Gen. (ret.) Amos Yadlin and Dr. Avner Golov - More than anything, military aid symbolizes America's commitment to Israel's security, which dramatically affects Israel's and America's deterrence posture in the region. Iran will be more brazen should its regime conclude that the U.S. will not stand by Israel in a future confrontation. The U.S.-Israel military partnership serves as a stabilizing force and prevents further security deterioration. Israel's "defend itself by itself" approach enables the U.S. to build a regional pro-American coalition that counters Iran's malign activities while enhancing U.S. influence and diminishing China's and Russia's. Maj-Gen. (ret.) Amos Yadlin served as the head of Israel Defense Intelligence and deputy commander of the Israeli Air Force. Dr. Avner Golov served as a senior director at Israel's National Security Council.
