On Friday a Confederate reader brought up Trump's Israeli defence pact trial balloon.
Tom Clancy proposed this in one of his novels. As we recall an armored cavalry regiment was stationed in Israel.
The Israelis have always insisted upon defending themselves, albeit with a lot of American weaponry.
Back in the 2000's, after the 'peace process' went up in flames, some internationalist apparatchik* suggested Israel join NATO. That is the Jews were going to count on the French, the Spanish and oh yes, the Germans to defend them. This is a sick joke.
Now an American security guarantee...
[Really? How'd that work out for South Vietnam and Cambodia?-Ed]
One could certainly home-port a carrier in Haifa. The Soviets**....er Russians have a base in Syria so why not? How about an airbase, Ramat Trump!
*It wasn't Tom Friedman. I can't believe it wasn't Tom Friedman.
**That's what I really wrote.
