Israel should approach the US Congress as it is: Co-determining US national security, equal in power to the Executive, supervising the Administration, capable of shaping, suspending, amending and even reversing policy.
Israel should wean itself off US foreign aid over 5-10 years, transferring each installment to a bi-national US-Israel fund which would be employment and export-driven (e.g. defense industries, water technologies, energy alternatives), leveraging each other’s competitive-edge, along the lines of the successful BIRD foundation.
