Out of all the countries that joined the coalition to invade Iraq, how come Israel didn't help the US ?

Question

Israel has one of the largest and toughest Military in the world and has been the recipient of most of Americas foreign appropriations. and is supposed to be our largest ally but how come it never helped us invade Iraq when it was in Israel that US security strategy for invading Iraq was concocted.

Answer 1

Well.. because had Israel been a truly good neighbor in the Middle East it would have been somehow able to avert the disaster in Iraq..

However it would seem the whole war in Iraq was commited at the behest of Israel itself.. which then remained silent and "innocent" on the sideline..

The core plan of the Iraq war is to build a pipeline which will send all of Iraq's oil to Tel Aviv.. where it can then be refined and shipped.. this is part of America's Iraqi strategy..

You then consider that Perle, Wolfowitz, Rumsefeld and Cheney are all Israeli jews. and were instrumental in making the Iraqi war plans for Bush and you suddenly realise.. America is fighting this war for Israel..

Answer 2

each and all the U.S. has given is dying and destruction and left the country in a state of revolution. till now the 1st gulf war Iraq's infrastructure became first fee, however the U.S. and that is subservient poodles concentrated the water works etc. and ruined the country. Sadam will possibly no longer have been suitable yet he spent the international locations earnings on the infrastructure of the country and the individuals, no longer basically like the despots in Saudi Arabia who spend all their wealth on racehorses and palaces.

Answer 3

Why would Israelis die when Americans do it for them? Israel is no ally of USA.

USA spends more on the average Israeli than on the average american.
"Since 1949 the U.S. has given Israel a total of $83.205 billion. The interest costs borne by U.S. tax payers on behalf of Israel are $49.937 billion, thus making the total amount of aid given to Israel since 1949 $133.132 billion. This may mean that U.S. government has given more federal aid to the average Israeli citizen in a given year than it has given to the average American citizen."

And for those that say Israel is an ally of the USA, then why does Israel have the entire USA tapped? Why does it spend so much energy to spy on USA?

5 Israelis were caught videotaping 9/11. How did they know exactly how, where, and when it would happen? If Israelis were our allies, they would have gone into the wtc and said something, called someone. Instead, they filmed it. This is them admitting that they were videotaping it.

The New York Times reported Thursday that a group of five men had set up video cameras aimed at the Twin Towers prior to the attack on Tuesday, and were seen congratulating one another afterwards.

We give Israel all that money, and in exchange, this is how Israel treats us. Thanks Israel, America's great and wonderful ally.

“Every time we do something you tell me America will do this and will do that . . . I want to tell you something very clear: Don't worry about American pressure on Israel. We, the Jewish people, control America, and the Americans know it.”

-Ariel Sharon

Answer 4

Israel was requested to stay out of the conflict in Iraq for regional peace. They are hated, in that region, so their help would only start all the Arab nations fighting with the Iraqis. NATO and the USA requested that Israel stay out of the conflict.

Answer 5

Israel is the most hated country in the region.If they enter the war along side the U.S. a full blown war involving every nation in the region would result.

Answer 6

The Arabs hate Israel enough without her being involved in a war in an Arab country. I think that if Israeli soldiers were on the ground in Iraq, the whole Muslim world would go bat **** crazy.

Answer 7

BECAUSE the whole middle east hates Israel and if they got involved, they would be hated more

and many arab nations who support us will not if israel helps too {during the 1st gulf war, syria and egypt vowed to pull out if israel joined}

Answer 8

Isreal stayed out because being a hated nation over in that region it wouldhave sparked off a firestorm in more than iraq would have set the whole area into war

Answer 9

If you lived in a bee hive would you start smashing bees ? I don't think you would neither would Israel start fighting Arabs if they can keep from it
