One of the main reasons has been the strength of the US dollar.

From my observation, the US$ buying power has been in decline for a long time. The debt continues to climb, almost $34 Trillion with one trillion per year in interest payment on the debt.

The US/Israel mission of killing people and destroying valuable resources could very well lead to the demise of both democracies. Sure, USA is resilient and will recover but at what cost? As per Israel, likely one of two possibilities could unfold in the next few years. One, a greater Israel and two, no Israel.
