Jordan assisted Israel in taking down some drones, but the Arab Emirates, Saudis, et al. are quiet. "If only" this Administration understood where the alliance with Israel has dragged us. Those poor US service men are just like ducks in water. Turkey and Azerbaijan still get oil to Israel, so I doubt Erdogan does more than talk!

I understand that Israel doesn’t trade much with its neighbors. The economy is dependent on imports from Europe, etc at just a couple of ports.

Its economy is in free fall. Over a thousand businesses have closed in the past year.

Haifa is damaged. Eilat is bankrupt, closed. Ballistic missiles destroyed the oil/gas transit port. The economy is broken, and there are very few willing to cross the war. Very sad and self destructive
