What will Israel bring to its most important alliance? – opinion
Israel’s greatest test isn’t what it receives from Washington, it’s what it can bring. As America builds alliances around technology and innovation, Israel has a chance to prove its value
The US-Israel alliance, traditionally defined by American aid to Israel, needs to evolve into a technology-focused partnership, according to a Jerusalem Post opinion piece. The new US National Security Science and Technology Strategy emphasizes leveraging allies' scientific and technological capabilities as a "force multiplier" for national security. This shift requires a "second pillar: technology" in 21st-century alliances.
- MIND Israel and the Special Competitive Studies Project propose a US-Israel Tech Alliance for strategic cooperation in areas like AI, semiconductors, and advanced energy.
- The US offers capital, research, and industrial scale, while Israel contributes speed, experimentation, and problem-solving in specific technological bottlenecks.
- The goal is a trusted ecosystem where each partner contributes differentiated capabilities, creating greater resilience and strategic advantage.
- Government support, including shared research access and regulatory coordination, is crucial to facilitate private-sector cooperation and build enduring bonds between people.
