My problem is that i can not find any evidence (treaties, papers) saying that Israel gets oil from the United States. can you please tell me what document i sould look for to find my evidence, or help me to find out what documents show Israel paying money to the United States for oil.

Re: Israel and United States Oil

When you read that the United States sells oil to Israel, this generally means that U.S. oil companies are selling oil to Israeli refineries or oil distribution companies. Thus the documents that prove this are the contracts they've signed. I doubt they're going to share those with you. I suggest news reports from oil industry trade magazines for reports of large contracts.
