America’s long-standing support for Israel has been part of a critical partnership but also a point of controversy.
In New York on Tuesday, the United Nations Security Council met to discuss the war in Israel and other worldwide threats.
For the United States, the main concern is: Does its allegiance to Israel put a target on America’s back?"One of the things that the President has done is directed his team, U.S. homeland security team, to prioritize prevention and disruption of any emerging threats that could harm the Jewish, the Muslim, Arab Americans, or any other communities," said White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.
A close U.S. partnership with Israel was part of the motivation for the devastating attacks on 9/11 that killed almost 3,000 Americans. Another memo is getting attention now too. This time, a letter from San Diego’s Office of Customs and Border Protection, warning: “Individuals inspired by or reacting to, the current Israel-Hamas conflict may attempt travel to or from the area of hostilities in the Middle East via circuitous transit across the Southwest border,” it reads,“I’m concerned about a cell sitting inside America today.
