The US-Israel relationship: Beyond foreign aid

WATCH: “Straight Up” with Danny Seaman and guest Yoram Ettinger

Are Americans really ‘dying’ for Israel, or is America’s alliance with Israel based on mutual interests?

Join Danny Seaman, former senior official at the Prime Minister’s office, and Yoram Ettinger, former liaison to Capitol Hill and expert on Israel-U.S. relations, as they shed light on the often misunderstood dynamic between the two nations. Yoram shares insights into the strategic partnership that benefits both Israel and the United States, particularly in military defense and intelligence, and explains why Israel’s relationship with America is far more than just foreign aid.
