A Report on Israel's Foreign Policy and International Relations

This is an essay about Israel and the country's foreign policy. The author highlights a large immigrant Jewish population and how President Harry S. Truman extended recognition to Israel in 1948. Israel stands out as the only democracy with competitive elections, free press, and free speech in the Middle East. America's investment in maintaining Israel's military advantage is an efficient way to ensure that America is protected from terrorism, authoritarianism, and extremism. The Clinton administration played a crucial role in supporting agreements between Israel and the Palestinians, the peace treaty with Jordan, negotiations with Syria, and the end of the Arab boycott. In 1995, Jerusalem was recognized as the capital of Israel. In 1999, a United States embassy in Jerusalem was called for. The author also highlighted Israel and Egypt's signing of a peace treaty. This signing involved Anwar Sadat, Israel's Prime Minister Menachem Begin, and the signing of the Camp David Accords (Judea, Samaria, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip). The two leaders were awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
