  This panel will explore the strategic, economic, political and cultural dimensions of America’s support for Israel. Why has the US given more aid to Israel than any other country since the 1970s? The US and Israel share numerous military-industrial-surveillance technologies and other economic projects. America continues to protect and defend Israel
  regardless of Israel’s condemnation by the UN, International Court of Justice, International Criminal Court, and other international agencies.
