Israel-Palestine conflict

President Truman wanted to avoid conflict and instead the U.S. embargoed arms shipments to the Middle East.

The causes include the UN plan to split up Palestine, the declaration of the State of Israel and British sending aid to surrounding countries.

To expand territorial claims in Europe.

To establish a military alliance with Western powers and surrounding countries.

For religious reasons, political reasons, and because of cheap housing.

America has consistently denied aid to Israel since 1948 and will always continue to deny them aid because they do not want to help a country far away.

America's relationship with Israel has transformed to a strong alliance characterized by military, political, and economic support.
