Israel Center Lunch & Learn with Elai Rettig: Israel’s “Special Relationship” with the US
Elai Rettig, PhD, (Israel Institute Teaching Fellow in Israeli and Environmental Studies at WUSTL) explores the history of Israel’s foreign policy relationship with the US in this four-part series.
Reviewing the history of US-Israel relationship from an Israeli perspective shows that US foreign policy toward Israel doesn’t seem to follow the red-blue divide. We examine the underlying interests that maintain this “special” relationship and what could change it.
