In Part 3 of the Awake to Truth interview, Mary Starr talks with Retired Israeli Ambassador Yoram Ettinger, who delivers the hard truths and realities around the U.S./Israeli long-term partnership.
Ettinger shares that Israel at times maintains a “defiant state of mind” for a robust country, including that of their allies, saying that Israel’s mindset is to confront threats rather than live in denial or retreat. Americans aren’t as “cushioned” as they think.
The U.S./Israel Alliance shares a commitment to freedom and security, baked in shared values and a history of mutually beneficial cooperation in areas ranging from technology to agriculture. Further, Ettinger explains an historical covenant between the two countries and the impact of having a reliable “rainy day” friend, no matter the call.
