Dear
Wilson,
Israel is a bastion of freedom and democracy in a despotic Middle East. Israel is a stalwart US ally in a region of constantly shifting loyalties. More importantly, Israel is our first line of defense against enemies devoted to attacking America and killing Americans.
As Prime Minister Netanyahu noted during his meeting with
President Obama earlier this week, "Americans know that Israel and the
United States share common values, that we defend common interests, that we
face common enemies." Indeed, when Israel sounds the alarm about Iran, it's focusing our attention to the greatest strategic threat to America and the West.
Unlike so many of our allies, Israel has never asked for American soldiers to fight and die in her defense. All Israel has ever asked is the ability to defend herself by herself. In so doing, Israel's soldiers are actually defending us.
In recent years, we've spent far too much blood and treasure in the effort to build reliable allies in Iraq and Afghanistan. We can't afford to continue nation building our allies. We must make investments in our security which will return dividends well beyond what we spend. Our support for Israel is exactly the kind of wise security investment we need to make!
You can help us spread this important message by wearing our new Defend America, Vote Israel pin on your lapel. We would love to send this pin to you as our gift for your donation of $20 or more.
As we enter the heart of an election season, it's crucial that your friends and neighbors recognize the importance of a strong Israel to American security. It's even more important that they act on this belief when they enter the voting booth. By wearing the Defend America, Vote Israel pin, you can help ensure that both countries will be winners on election day!
May
God Bless You and Those that You Love,
