"While we see the US as an ally here - we haven't traditionally been at war with Arab countries"

Literally since the founding of the state of Israel the country has been at war with the Arab nations. Could you expand on what you mean by this?

No Israel hasn't been at war with its neighbouring Arab countries for a long time. They periodically attack Hezbollah, there is tension with Syria at the moment and obviously they are still occupying Palestine. However Egypt for example helps Israel with the Gaza blockade by not opening the Palestine-Egypt border.
