How much of a burden has Israel become to the US? | Inside Story

Israel has attacked a US ally, pulled America into a war with Iran and continues to commit genocide in Gaza. Yet it still has American support. That’s not to say that support isn’t wavering for some. Senators from both the Democratic and Republican parties have been criticising Israel’s violations of international law and calling for an end to US military aid. And among the American people, Israel’s popularity has nosedived. So why does the government continue to shield and defend Israel? And is the US unable, or unwilling, to change the behaviour of the Israeli government? Presenter: Cyril Vanier Guests Glenn Carle, former CIA officer and National Security Analyst.
