The move is a show that the U.S. does hold power over Israel’s actions — but chooses not to act in crucial ways.

I don’t even know what this means. Just make up words like " we have to look strong" and hope people buy the propaganda I guess.
Well, “we have to look strong” basically sums it all up, yeah. To quote a famous American saying, “Walk softly and carry a big stick”. We’ve been doing it for centuries, google Commodore Matthew Perry for an old example. Another good example would be Reagan reactivating our old Iowa class battleships just because they looked so dangerous, even though they were basically obsolete in the era of aircraft.
Making a threat can be very useful, it’s not hard to understand. Same reason a dog growls or a cat hisses.
Posturing like israels Bitch doesn’t give off strength vibes to me. Especially when Ukraine actually needs those weapons against Russia.
Hamas doesn’t have nukes. If Russia didn’t, we probably would sail into the Baltic and posture.
And yeah, you do have a point with Ukraine. We don’t have any signed treaties with them like we do Israel though. Just the Budapest Memorandum, with its very soft wording.
