The Jerusalem Post - Firmly behind Israel
The Jerusalem Post reports: "Last month, President Barack Obama allocated an additional $205 million to permit Israel to position additional short-range Iron Dome antimissile batteries throughout the Jewish state. This is on top of the more than $3 billion in US military aid that it will already receive from the US this year, plus more than $200 million in additional money for the US-Israel joint missile defense systems, including the longrange Arrow and the medium-range David Sling."

Comment: Despite what you may have heard about strained diplomatic relations between the U.S. and Israel, their strategic cooperation is as strong as ever.
