I take it that you are of the opinion that Israel did and does spy on
the US, but that this is ok, because everybody does it.

First, do you have any evidence that other major US allies (Britain,
France, Germany) spy on the US?

Second, why do you think that this is ok?

Huh?  Which earlier posting?  That pointer seems to be dereferenced.

I looked up the US-Israel trade figures, about $3billion/annum.  That
is about the same as with Denmark, and is smaller than our aid to
Israel.  At those prices, we should be getting all our Israeli oranges
for free.
