U.S. Marines and Israeli soldiers participate in Juniper Cobra, a U.S.–Israeli joint defense exercise in a mock Arab village, in Zeelim, southern Israel (Reuters File Photo)

U.S. troops could be asked to fight and die for the defense of Israel, an air force commander told the Jerusalem Post following a joint air defense exercise.

U.S. Third Air Force Commander Lt. Gen. Richard Clark, who is one of the highest-ranking military officers in the U.S. Armed Forces, told the Israeli daily that the two countries strive to enhance military partnership and cooperation through Juniper Cobra, a joint military exercise that has been conducted for almost a decade.

"We are ready to commit to the defense of Israel anytime we get involved in a kinetic fight there is always the risk that there will be casualties. But we accept that - as every conflict, we train for and enter, there is always that possibility," Clark said, highlighting that U.S. soldiers should be prepared to die for the Jewish state.

Although the relations between the U.S. and Israel have become closer than ever as a result of President Donald Trump's unconditional support for the latter's stance regarding the recognition of Jerusalem, Golan Heights and other topics, such a statement contradicts the oath taken by military or federal personnel:


"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same."

Gen. Clark also said that the U.S. troops could be put under Israeli commanders in the battlefield.

"At the end of the day it is about the protection of Israel – and if there is a question in regards to how we will operate, the last vote will probably go to Zvika [Haimovitch, the head of the IDF's Aerial Defense Division]."

What about this?

At the Israel America Council’s National Conference Nancy Pelosi put Israel before America.

“I have said to people when they ask me if this Capitol crumbled to the ground, the one thing that would remain is our commitment to our aid…and I don’t even call it aid…our cooperation with Israel. That’s fundamental to who we are.”

This is called true love between two countries.

You didnt read a post i made a few days ago where my Ppal Matt was explaining, having raised in a Christian family, how israel actually figures in xtian eschatology.Its basically they both are giving each other hand#&b till a certain time and each knows based on their teachings that they will triumph the other. Its funny and sad at the same tam.

Already they are dying in afghanistan and other wars for sake of israel so it is not a surprise as the u.s economy is totally dependent on jewish lobby who control their central bank and market rates of Comodities
 
. . .
They are allies. Real allies (as we say "first circle"). Nothing to be shocked about.

Zionists own the US. They control the media, the congress and the senate. People have been saying for a long time that Americans are coming back in body bags fighting for Israel.

This General has just made it official.

Venezuela owns Russia :D
well i don't agree it is not about largest fleet at all. Qatar having the largest base in ME. And Qatar is not at all in the "first circle".
It is not even with quantity of weapons sold.
It is more than this: technology and any cooperation , international support, and so...
