Israeli troops captured Egyptian soldiers in Rafah during the 1956 conflict when Israel, Britain, and France invaded Egypt over the Suez Canal nationalization. U.S. President Eisenhower’s intervention led to the withdrawal of foreign troops. Presently, strained U.S.-Israel relations are evident as Israel faces criticism for its military actions in Gaza, with President Biden supporting Israel but cautioning against certain actions. Netanyahu’s policies are scrutinized, impacting international support for Israel. While past disputes between the U.S. and Israel have been resolved, generational perspectives on Israel have evolved, affecting the dialogue between the two countries. Biden’s proposed military aid to Israel contrasts with his criticisms of Israeli military operations, raising questions about the future of U.S.-Israel relations.
