The U.S. supports Israel primarily due to shared democratic values and strategic geopolitical interests. As the only democracy in the Middle East, Israel aligns with American principles of governance, human rights, and rule of law, making it a natural ally. Strategically, Israel plays a crucial role in U.S. foreign policy by helping to maintain stability in a volatile region, countering hostile regimes, and combating terrorism. U.S. security aid ensures Israel can defend itself against ongoing threats while also advancing American military and intelligence cooperation, strengthening both nations' security interests.
