I'm often told that Israel is the best ally the US has in the world. Sometimes the statement is changed to say "the best ally in the Middle East.
However, I haven't heard of the US arresting any spies from any Middle East countries except Israel. Israel spies on our Government and our companies and steals any technology that they can get their hands onto.

Why does the US put up with this treatment? What do we do about it? We provide Israel the largest per capita aid program of around a $1B/year, and we provide aid to their neighboring countries (Egypt, Jordan etc) to prevent them from responding to Israel's many misguided attacks on Palestinians and Citizens of neighboring Lebanon. What do we get in return? Spies!
