I believe we have no greater friend in the Middle East. Like us, Israel is a nation of immigrants, a country based on ideas, on our shared Judeo-Christian, democratic values. I also believe that from a purely American point of view, supporting Israel is tremendously beneficial to our national security interests. It is also in our economic interests. Since being elected, I have visited Israel three times and have worked hard to repair the damage the administration has done to this vital relationship.
In "A Time for Truth: Reigniting the Promise of America," Ted Cruz emphasizes the strong friendship between the United States and Israel, highlighting their shared values of democracy and immigrant heritage. He views Israel not just as an ally but as a vital partner that aligns with American interests and principles rooted in Judeo-Christian ideals.
Cruz argues that supporting Israel enhances American national security and economic stability. Since taking office, he has made three trips to Israel, actively working to mend relations strained by previous administrations, underscoring the importance of this connection for both nations.
