Oh, dear. Look, the big difference between Israel and the U.S. is simple. The U.S. is surrounded by two oceans, Canada and Mexico, with Central America farther south. They fought with Mexico once over territory.
Israel is surrounded by 3 seas, Egypt, Jordan, and Syria, with Saudi Arabia and Iraq right nearby. It was, in fact, attacked by just about all those countries at once when it was founded by the U.N. There, see? Different.
