The latest research from YouGov shows that most Americans (60%) still support the American commitment to defend NATO allies if they are under attack, while 17% say that it is no longer necessary. Support is highest among Republicans (65%) and lowest among Independents (56%), while 60% of Democrats support the NATO commitment. Ask about specific scenarios where the US might have to use military force to defend allies, and Americans become less willing to step in. 56% of Americans think that the US should use military force to defend Britain if they are attacked by Russia.
I am very curious what attack you are under?

Being from Denmark I can say for sure we are under attack right now..
But its a hidden enemy that lives among us driven by religious motives.
And I believe its the same all over Europe by now, and no one knows how to end it, we Europeans got a big heart for people that seek help, but that bites us in the butt now.
But yes for the OP question if I was US president, I would nuke the middle east to glass and ban Islam from the world and stop all immigration.

We have a written, signed and declared defense pact with them. We should honor it as long as they are honoring their side.
Just my opinion.

So in short, we should never let xenophobic sociopaths make choices which affect anyones lives, in any small way? Gotcha.
You have been well and truly bought, and sold by the propagandists.
@OP
Yes, with the following conditions:
A) Only as long as the nation under attack has not been asking for it in triplicate with interventionist policies and by operating proxy armies/wars, using the attacking nations people as pawns
B) As long as the nation being attacked has never economically destabilised the attacking nation for the gain of the attacked nation.
C) Only if there is no financial reason to do so.

Israel isn't part of the NATO defense pact as a partner. None of the partners are.
That said we, the US, have a individual defense aid pact with Israel. So yes.
We would then have to decide which to support.
