Summary/Abstract: The relationship between United States and Israel it is considered a special one by taking into consideration a complex set of aspects. The reasons for this strong connection can be gathered around the realist concept of interest. The aim of this paper is to identify and analyze these reasons, the changes and/or the continuity of the relations of the two states after the Cold War. Such a presentation can be a valuable contribution in describing some of the main tendencies of the international system in our days. After the end of the Cold War we notice a continuity but also a reconfiguration of the relationship between the two actors. The first visible change we can observe stands in the degree of and predictability of Israel’s actions towards the United States. On the other side, the main element that suggests a strong prevailing continuity in the relation between U.S.A and Israel is obvious if we take into consideration the political discourses of the American presidents after the end of Cold War. Also it’s interesting to observe the fact that both the Republican and the Democrats sustained the Israeli political ideas and cause along more than a century.
