    As long as the US backs them up they feel invincible. I’m sure the nukes help, too. They’re like Russia.

      Yeah and if they start attacking NATO countries it’s going to end badly for them. The US will drop support like a hot rock. They really won’t like it I’m sure, but they are not going to back Israel over NATO, it’s just not happening.

          Do you meant that oopsie with the USS Liberty? That kind of thing happens occasionally but cooler heads prevail as long as everyone communicates. There was also an incident when Turkey (a NATO member) shot down a Russian fighter, but nobody went to war.
