Doesn't the US still give massive financial aid to Israel every year? If so, they have no leverage and they certainly won't find any other country more pro-Israel than the US. The last thing we need is to be any more pro-Israel than we already are. I think Obama's approach to Israel is a welcome change, albeit not as big as some like to think. We are still strong allies, it's just that right now there are right-wing hawks in power in Israel while the US political scene is left-of-center.
