U.S.-Israel Relations: 75 Years and On

Israel's relationship with the United States has been crucial since President Harry Truman made the United States the first country in the world to recognized Israel's independence in May 1948. Two experts and scholars who spent much of their careers in the middle of the U.S.-Israel relationship, Aaron David Miller and Raphael Danziger, join Center for Israel Education Founding President Ken Stein to discuss how those ties have evolved over 75 years and to examine what the future holds.
They address highs and lows in the relationship, how the special connections between the two countries has played a role in Middle East peace efforts, and how changes in the governments of both are affecting what have been close ties for more than half a century.
This 52-minute video was recorded during a live stream Nov. 29, 2022, the 75th anniversary of the U.N. General Assembly’s approval of Resolution 181, calling for the partition of the British Mandate of Palestine into independent Jewish and Arab states with a special international status for Jerusalem.
