Commitment to Israel may be a ruse

Dennis Rose in his book A Hollow Peace wrote about the importance of convincing Israel that the U.S. was behind it's security, so that Israel would feel safe enough to make concessions. That doesn't mean the U.S. government really does stand behind Israel. Just the fact that the U.S. , under the Obama adminstration, wants Israel to retreat to the indefensible 1948 lines is proof that the U.S. doesn't stand behind Israel.
