What are these allies giving us in return?

Muh intelligence!

Like how they stopped 9/11, or October 7th. They're the most advanced intelligence agency in the world, which is why neither of those attacks happened, why Israel isn't always getting missiles lobbed at them, and why they ~~desperately need~~ are gracious enough to accept the US's never-ending "aid." They know it makes us feel warm and fuzzy inside to help them, so they let us feel useful, even though they're obviously strong and independent allies.

Israel wouldn't have known anything about 9/11, because they were never the target. The CIA, NSA, and FBI did know, and only the NSA actually tried to do anything to bring it to people's attention.

As for intelligence sharing, there's a good god damned reason they are not in the FIVE EYES. And it's because they put their interest over ours.

I'm surprised to hear you admit this given how much interference you run for them.

However, I'd argue every nation in the FIVE EYES fits that description just as much as Israel. It'd be absolutely absurd for a country to prioritize another country's interests over its own...
