Since the establishment of the state of Israel, on the mutual concerns and interests of Israel and the U.S, in most areas with respect to their foreign policy there has been a similar perception of the Middle East.Due to the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the war on terror, the U.S strengthened ties with Israel. At no time since the establishment of the Israeli state has the U.S followed such a pro-Israeli policy line. Although President Bush has been the first president ever to suggest an internationally recognized Palestinian State, he took a minimalist approach in the peace talks.This was partly due to his highly neo-conservative biased views and the role he envisioned Israel would play in the war on terror. This book analyzes the mutual concerns of U.S and Israel within the context of Bushs perception of groups and states that support terrorism; the development of W.M.Ds in the area and the lost opportunities by the President
