The author of this op-ed is John Spencer. John Spencer is the Chair of Urban Warfare Studies at the Modern War Institute at West Point. He understands the profound value that Israel has to the U.S Military. Ignorant bigots such as Tucker Carlson, Dave Smith, Marjorie Taylor Greene and others do not. And worse, many Democrats are trying to block arms shipments to Israel, despite the numerous benefits Israel’s use of U.S military equipment bring to the U.S.
10 ways Israel has directly improved the U.S. Military:
1) Countering IEDs
2) Active Protection Systems
3) Israeli Enhancements to the F-35: Improving US Air Superiority
4) Targeting Pods and Precision Rockets: An Israeli-American Airpower Advantage
5) The Israeli Emergency Bandage: A Battlefield Lifesaver

7) Military Working Dogs
8) Counter-Tunneling Technologies: Lessons from Israel’s Underground War

The lessons drawn from Israel’s battlefield successes would profoundly shape US military doctrine, directly influencing the development of AirLand Battle doctrine and the “Big Five” weapon systems
