Trump regarding Israel and Nato
Reader comment on item: End U.S. Aid to Israel
Submitted by Stein (United States), Jul 27, 2016 at 19:09
Daniel Pipes,
You support Israel becoming financially independent from the US. But you seem to oppose when Trump desires to make Nato nations financially independent from the US. What is the difference, as you view it?

Daniel Pipes replies:
You must be kidding. I think U.S.-Israel relations are better without a financial component. I also think that the U.S. government should live up to its treaty obligations. I see no connection between the two.
