staying in jerusalem, seeing bethlehem up close, viewing israel atop the golan heights and traveling along the jordan river all made a lasting impression. my time in israel also impressed me on israel's undeniable security needs in the face of the persistent threat from iran and its proxies in syria and lebanon as well as the instability and violence stemming from the long-running conflict with the palestinians. listing the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu's presentation to our congressional delegation greatly enhanced my level of support for israeli foreign aid. just as listening to the palestinian authority's presentation greatly enhanced my opposition to foreign aid for palestine. for these reasons i believe u.s. security assistance to israel should continue to be a high priority, and i am proud that defense collaboration between our two countries has yielded many important developments, including the arrow antiballistic missile system, which is among the top missile shield technologies in the world. considering the growing threat of north korea's nuclear missile program
