 Paradigm Shift Event

  • The 1967 Six-Day War marked a turning point, as Israel's rapid victory established it as a key U.S. ally against Soviet influence in the region.

  • Israel's swift victory over Arab states (Jordan, Syria, Egypt) showcased its military strength.

  • At the time, the U.S. was preoccupied with the Vietnam War, leading to a reevaluation of allies.

  • Defeat of Soviet-aligned countries made Israel a key asset against Soviet influence in the region

  • Post-war, the U.S. began viewing Israel as a stable ally in West Asia.

Basis of the 'Special Relationship'

  • The U.S. has provided unconditional military aid, amounting to approximately $3.8 billion annually, accounting for 16% of Israel’s military budget.

  • Since World War II, Israel has received a total of $158 billion in U.S. aid, making it the largest recipient of U.S. foreign assistance.

  • The U.S. and Israel share a deep defense partnership, including joint military research and development, such as the Iron Dome missile defense system.

  • The U.S. often uses its veto power in the UN Security Council to protect Israel from resolutions critical of its actions.

  • Both countries engage in significant trade relations, with annual trade reaching around $50 billion.


Significance of the Pro-Israel Lobby

  • The pro-Israel lobby influences U.S. foreign policy, ensuring strong bipartisan support for Israel across political parties.

  • Key groups, such as the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), actively promote pro-Israel policies and host influential political leaders.

  • American Jews and evangelical Christians are two significant constituencies that advocate for Israel, shaping public opinion and electoral politics.

  • Pro-Israel groups contribute financially to both Democratic and Republican campaigns, enhancing their political influence.

  • The Israel lobby helps amplify pro-Israel voices while minimizing criticism, ensuring a consistent U.S. stance in favor of Israel.
