In this paper I take a close look at the historical development of the US-Israeli relations from the foundation of the state of Israel in the year 1948 to the present day. I try to analyze how the relationship between these countries evolved in the course of 50 years and how the recent political development like the war in Syria, the Arab Spring, the demographic change both in the United States and Israel will influence the relations between Israel and its closest ally.
Israel–United States relations are an important factor in the United States policy in the Middle East, and for this reason the US government has placed considerable importance on the maintenance of this close and supportive relationship. One of main expression of US support for Israel has been foreign aid. Since 1985, the US has provided the Jewish state with nearly $3 billion Dollars with Israel being the largest annual recipient of American aid from 1976 to 2004 and the largest cumulative recipient of aid since World War II.
But financial aid to Israel by the United States government is not all that US provides to Israel, Israel is also provided with enormous diplomatic, political and legal support by his most important ally.
