distance or politically, or support financially or closest to freedoms???
Of course I don't mean distance. Otherwise define it as you wish. My thoughts were someone dependable who will back the US up in times of trouble and doesn't cause much trouble. Canada, the US's largest trading partner, rescued American embassy staff in Iran (30 years later and Canadians still bring that up) and has been in Afghanistan since 2002.
Our strongest ally is whoever happens to be on the recieving (and beneficial) end of one of our jaunts into some activity that's in our "national interest" at the time.
I guess the way I see it our strongest ally is Canada. Obviously we get along well, we have the longest un-defended border in the world.
The UK and Australia are our next closest allies.
