US defense from... who exactly?
And of course, the US bases are guests in Spain, a favor the Spanish are doing for their friends. They're still expected to follow their hosts rules.

> Pretty sure those agreements don't say "And you can tell us what to do with our defense assets whenever you want".
Of course they do.
https://es.usembassy.gov/agreement-on-defense-cooperation/
"To this end, Spain grants to the United States of America the use of operational and support installations and grants authorizations for use of Spanish territory, territorial sea and airspace for purposes within the bilateral or multilateral scope of this Agreement. Any use beyond these purposes will require the prior authorization of the Government of Spain."
"Aircraft flying logistics missions, operated by or for the United States forces, other than those in paragraph 1, not carrying VIPs, HAZMAT or cargo or passengers that might be controversial to Spain may overfly, enter or exit Spanish airspace and use the bases specified in Annex 2 on quarterly blanket overflight clearances authorized by the Permanent Committee."

There would be no public education nor healthcare in Israel without US money.
