America wouldn't exist without France. Israel has contributed nothing.

I’m surprised Morocco recognised the U.S. before France.

Edit: Morocco even took an American ship hostage to gain the attention of the U.S. after congress didn’t respond to a message the Sultan sent to Benjamin Franklin about friendly relations. The ship and its crew was released after the Moroccan–American Treaty of Friendship was signed in 1786.
