The US/Israel relationship?

The more I think about it, the stranger it becomes.

Why are the US and Israel so friendly? It can't just be Zionism, surely?

The UK and US aren't even that friendly. You don't see the Union Jack flag flying in the US govt. buildings. You don't see special military regulations and exemptions given to British soldiers like you do with Israeli soldiers. The US isn't sending billions in aid to Africa each year.

Wtf is going on?

It's very strange.
