Yes, let's get rid of an ally for nothing

I think one of the main reasons is because we need a strong ally in that area of the world.

They are important because they own the US.
US gives money for financial aid to Israel every year and is included in our military budget. The last president to sign the this Mr.Bush.
www.washington-report.org...
Foreign Aid: $3 billion, Loan Guarantees (normally): $2 billion (Note: the U.S. Congress has forgiven ALL loans to Israel in the past), private tax deductible donations: $1 billion, Israeli bonds: $500 million, Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) which guarantees all Israel's oil needs in the event of a crisis: $3 billion (The Oil funding is camouflaged in the Defense budget) = Total $9.5 billion.

Its not so much a strong ally. It’s a good place for the US to help control the Middle-East; Think, America has "loved" Israel since the idea was first thought out from the UNSCOP. Your president went against all the advice from his fellow administration and backed Israel fully, they all told him it would end in lots of wars....and they where right.
"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."
