I just wanted to point that out. Were you really at the planning meeting for 9-11 that you would know when the decision was made?

Another entangling military agreement. No thanks. How does this benefit the US?

He is not fit to govern, and people should ignore his suggestions.
So what, Israel spies in the U.S.. Remember Obama spied on Merkel. The U.S. spies on Israel. Allies spy on each other. There are many reasons why a mutual defense treaty with Israel is a bad idea. Mutual spying isn't one if them.

That is the only option you can think of?

Bush chose to ignore the threat, and the result was 9/11.

How does this benefit the US?

I can't see one way that it does. I thought Trump was all about "America First".

Yes, it is one reason. It shows we should not trust them blindly.

Remember how Israel sent a thousand troops to South Korea when we invaded Iraq for them?

No?

Did he instruct any agency to ignore it?

Israel come to our defense? That’s laughable.

Trying to sign us up with a bad deal with a foreign country that doesn’t benefit us in any way.

The terrorists involved were in flight training, learning how to maneuver an airplane in flight, and told their instructor they had no interest in learning how to land the aircraft.......before G W Bush was even elected.

So the decision was made during Clintoon's watch. I just wanted to point that out.
