The End of the Israel Exception: A New Paradigm for American Policy.

The article examines the longstanding and unique relationship between the United States and Israel, highlighting its evolution and the implications of its current exceptional status. It argues that unconditional U.S. support has led to detrimental consequences for both nations, particularly exacerbating the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and harming U.S. global standing. The author advocates for a normalization of the U.S.-Israeli relationship, suggesting that this would involve establishing clear expectations, applying U.S. laws uniformly, and conditioning support based on compliance with international norms. The article emphasizes that such changes are essential for the interests of Americans, Israelis, and Palestinians, and warns that failure to adapt could lead to further instability and conflict in the region.
