Don't get me wrong, everything they do is for the circus show and those weapons will still get delivered. But the strategy is as cowardly as it can get. The sad part is people in the U.S. will endorse it and run to the polls for more of it.

The average American has zero idea just how many years further ahead Israel is in cyber warfare and cyber defense over the United States. Israel could pull those defensive shields protecting the US thus putting the US in a perilous situation if we are cyber attacked.

It also likely spells the end of Israel purchasing US military equipment and on shoring its military manufacturing even more than they have over the last decade. Israel already does over $18 billion a year in sales so this would royally screw over the US defense contractors who Israel has been forced to buy weapons from over the last twenty years. Israel under this scenario would likely become one of the largest military equipment manufacturers in the world in the next five years. The US has aggressively tried to stop Israel from building their own military hardware to the point where they pushed down incentives to tie Israel by tying them to US military industrial complex to thwart them from hurting our domestic military manufacturing.

And more importantly it really hurts the US’s hypermissile efforts since Israel is the global leader is this space.

It sends a message to Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Egypt that the US is aligning with Iran going forward.
