It might be difficult as Israel has threatened the use of Nuclear weaponry in the past if the US were to stop their aid.
In the 1973 Yom Kippur War, Arab forces were overwhelming Israeli forces and Prime Minister Golda Meir authorized a nuclear alert and ordered 13 atomic bombs be readied for use by missiles and aircraft. The Israeli Ambassador informed President Nixon that “very serious conclusions” may occur if the United States did not airlift supplies. Nixon complied. This is seen by some commentators on the subject as the first threat of the use of the Samson Option.
North Korea threatens the US with nukes all the time, and yet no one is bowing down to the Kim’s demands.
Israel has 3 options with its nuke threat, empty words and become an international pariah state, nuke Palestine and by extension itself, or nuke the US.
IIRC some of the radical extremely right wing Israeli figures have been suggesting that the last-ditch Samson option would be to nuke basically anyone they can in retaliation for the destruction of Israel.
In 2003, a military historian, Martin van Creveld, thought that the Second Intifada then in progress threatened Israel’s existence. Van Creveld was quoted in David Hirst’s The Gun and the Olive Branch (2003) as saying:
We possess several hundred atomic warheads and rockets and can launch them at targets in all directions, perhaps even at Rome. Most European capitals are targets for our air force. Let me quote General Moshe Dayan: ‘Israel must be like a mad dog, too dangerous to bother.’ I consider it all hopeless at this point. We shall have to try to prevent things from coming to that, if at all possible. Our armed forces, however, are not the thirtieth strongest in the world, but rather the second or third. We have the capability to take the world down with us. And I can assure you that that will happen before Israel goes under.

None of those options end well for Israel.
So who cares about such a empty threat.

That’s what North Korea says as well.
Still doesn’t mean the US is supplying North Korea with weapons.
