It isnt that Israel doesnt support us. They do.
They just cant and shouldnt do it with their military forces.
The Israeli military may be powerful but it is very very small. they are all needed just to protect their own country. Except for maybe some air strike by their planes. there is not much they could provide.
Second reason is all the Anti-semetic feelings among the Muslim nations. any involvement by the Israelis would spark such a war as to make the current Conflict in Iraq look tame.
During Desert Storm Israel want to join the 23 nation coalition to help Kuwait gain her freedom back from Iraq. It would have been a 24 nation coalition. It would have been a case of a Jewish Nation(Israel) assisting in the defense of an Islamic Nation(Kuwait). but it would also have been a case of a Jewish Nation(Israel) attacking an Islamic Nation(Iraq) and all the other Islamic Nations would have none of that and would have destroyed the coalition.
USA quietly thanked Israel for their offer but asked them to stay out of it for that very reason. Israel stood aside and offered only moral support instead. Saddam knowing what would happen if Israel entered the war, Intentionally targetted his Scuds on Israel hoping to provoke a response. Whith pledges from the US to actively hunt down the Scuds and with the provision of Patriot SAM Batteries to Israel, they chose to stay out even as they were being attacked knowing it was for the better.
It is the only time in History that I can think of where Israel showed restraint in matters of defense or allowed her defense to reside in the hands of others.
Learn a little more history before you go off accusing an ally of non-support.

Israel is the lightning rod thart could escalate this into a regional war. Many moderate Arab country's would join in the fray against the US, UK, and Israel. As long as Israel stays out of it, so will the moderate Arabs.
Understand something. Much of what is happening today in the middle east, is because of the US's alliance with Israel. The Arabs despise our stand in favor of Israel. It's a delicate balance for the US to remain friendly with Arab country's when they know our politics. The US has certainly asked Israel not to get involved in this war, however, it's a matter of time before Israel decides to take out Irans nuclear facility if the US doesn't do something about it, soon !

Israel is despised by the Arab Nation in general. They have been asked to stay out of the conflict because their involvement would only polarize this community further against the alliance (if you call this an alliance). The majority of the Arabic nations consider the whole existence of Israel a misfortune theft of land by the Israelis.Remember they were asked not to respond when they were being hit by scud missiles, we did everything to protect them and keep them out of the conflict (patriot missile systems). They are probably working in the background providing information through their intelligence services to the allies.They have plenty of problems with the Palestinian neighbors and other terrorists groups. In the event of a nuclear exchange they would probably get involved due to their geographical location.

Israel has been fighting Pakistan since they were little boys in there cribs.There daddys handed them a 9 and told them to kill the pakistani's.Quite literally since the 50's anyways.After decades of war and teaching there children to hate Arabs they already know what gulf war is and have there hands full already.
They just don't want to go through it again when there hell bent on invading the Hezbollah terrorist movement.However the Jews for there part did take away land from the pakeys much as the pilgrams did to the Indians when they settled here.This info has been on the news almost every night for centuries before Iraq ever happened with this country.

properly listed right here are some information. Israel is a county of 7 million which makes it tiny whilst in comparison with very almost all different military powers. Israel has fought 7 of its very own wars interior the previous 60 years. Israel has in no way asked squaddies from the different usa to assist look after itself. Israel's military is a majority of reserve squaddies is has a tiny status military and that they are all coping with adversarial enemies in each direction. Israel is the only usa in the international below direct existential threat. Iran, Hamas, Jihad, Hezbollah. All choose for us long previous. we don't have the luxurious to deliver troops international. yet!!!! Airports the international over are safer via fact of Israeli protection regulations. American and different countries squaddies are safer via fact of Israeli protection technologies. the international is safer via fact of Israeli intelligence the u . s . a . replaced into waiting to combat 2 wars against Iraq via fact Israel risked its pilots lives attacking nuclear factors of interest interior the 80's. there is extra. you're unaware of the information. ok

Because they are being restrained by the US, ever since Desert Storm. Even when Saddam was launching Skuds into Israel, Bush (#41) asked them not to retaliate, that the US would fight their battles. The day Israel chooses to fight, all the Arab states will open new fronts against Israel. The hatred lies so deeply there. Why risk another regional war?

The U.S. won't allow it because it will only make things worse since Muslims hate Israel. It will heighten the attacks and encourage other Muslim nations to fight against the U.S., Israel and other allies.

Because if Israel gets involved it becomes a jew/arab fight all over again. That would easily be the trigger for a larger conflict.

Why should they? First. They OWN America. Second. They are busy elsewhere doing their bit in preparation for the big blow. Here are some quotes and links that should let you know just why your question, while well meaning, is a tad naïve.
“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." Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon
"OUR RACE IS THE MASTER RACE. WE ARE DIVINE GODS ON THIS PLANET. WE ARE AS DIFFERENT FROM THE INFERIOR RACES AS THEY ARE FROM INSECTS. IN FACT, COMPARED TO OUR RACE, OTHER RACES ARE BEASTS AND ANIMALS, CATTLE AT BEST. OTHER RACES ARE CONSIDERED AS HUMAN EXCREMENT. OUR DESTINY IS TO RULE OVER THE INFERIOR RACES. OUR EARTHLY KINGDOM WILL BE RULED BY OUR LEADER WITH A ROD OF IRON. THE MASSES WILL LICK OUR FEET, AND SERVE US AS OUR SLAVES. Menachem Begin (Israeli Prime Minister) (1913-1992), winner of the Nobel Peace Prize(!)
"Israel may have the right to put others on trial, but certainly no one has the right to put the Jewish people and the State of Israel on trial." Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon,
"Israel should have exploited the repression of the demonstrations in China, when world attention focused on that country, to carry out mass expulsions among the Arabs of the territories."
-- Benyamin Netanyahu, then Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister, former Prime Minister of Israel
"(The Palestinians) should be crushed like grasshoppers ... heads smashed against the boulders and walls."- Isreali Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir in a speech to Jewish settlers
"[The Palestinians] are beasts walking on two legs."-- Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin
"When we have settled the land, all the Arabs will be able to do about it will be to scurry around like drugged cockroaches in a bottle." Raphael Eitan, Chief of Staff of the Israeli Defence Forces,
"The thesis that the danger of genocide was hanging over us in June 1967 and that Israel was fighting for its physical existence is only bluff, which was born and developed after the war." Israeli General Matityahu Peled, Ha'aretz, 19 March 1972.
"We have to kill all the Palestinians unless they are resigned to live here as slaves." Chairman Heilbrun of the Committee for the Re-election of General Shlomo Lahat, the mayor of Tel Aviv,
Now I will give you some great links to check out. Do some reading, sweetie, and learn how it really is. Education is knowledge, is power. We have to share it while we can because once they have the Muslim world under control they will turn to the West full throttle.
