Is the US blessing Israel by her Middle East foreign policy?

I do not agree with everything Chuck Baldwin says in this article but he does make some points that are worth thinking about.

Is the US really a blessing to Israel? He does not think so. From Jimmy Carter to George Bush I would have to say we have not taken positions that bless Israel.

Nonetheless, if we did nothing in the Middle East like Baldwin and Ron Paul suggest and we let Israel militarily take care of her own problems the world would already have united to fight against Israel. So if the US took no action in the Middle East that would not be a blessing to Israel either.

One thing for sure, the US better not take a position against the land promises given to the Jews. We should not try to divide Jerusalem because God made a clear prophecy that those that burden themselves over Jerusalem will be broken.

My dear
Christian brethren, let’s get real: America’s policies toward Israel have not
been a blessing to her. They have been a curse. George W. Bush and most other
Presidents during the last 40 years have treated Israel like the proverbial
red-headed step-child.

For example,
America continues to furnish Israel’s enemies with three times more aid and
assistance than it does Israel. Three times. Is that being a blessing to Israel?
America gives unflinching and magnanimous support to militant Muslim governments
such as Saudi Arabia. There is no nation in the Middle East that has harbored,
trained, supplied, and supported more terrorists than Saudi Arabia. Is that
being a blessing to Israel? In addition, every time an American President wants
to meddle in Middle Eastern affairs, he insists that Israel give up land for
peace. President Bush is doing that very thing anew and afresh at this very
moment. Is that being a blessing to Israel?
