US, "Israel" share "Unbreakable Bond"

The US has reiterated its "unbreakable bond" with the Zionist regime, expressing confidence that Washington-Tel Aviv relations will strengthen further in the future.

"Israel remains our important partner and key strategic ally in the Middle East," President Barack Obama said Monday, on the occasion of the anniversary of the formation of the oppressive regime.

"We continue to share a strong, unbreakable bond of friendship between our two nations, anchored by the United States' enduring commitment to ‘Israel's' security," he said in a statement released by the White House.

"I am confident that our special relationship will only be strengthened in the months and years to come," he added, hailing ‘Israel's' "deep and abiding friendship with the American people."

On Sunday, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said she and Obama both shared "a deep personal commitment to ‘Israel'," and vowed that the US would not waver in "protecting ‘Israel's' security and promoting ‘Israel's' future."

"The United States will continue to stand with you, sharing your risks and helping shoulder your burdens, as we face the future together," she said in a statement.

Clinton also noted that in 1948 it took President Harry Truman just 11 minutes to recognize ‘Israel'. "And ever since, the United States has stood with you in solidarity," she recalled.
