The U.S. and Europe actively mid-air refueled Israeli planes. They are not setting anything out.

It's part of American foreign policy to let Israel do much of their dirty work in the region. Netanyahu is necessary for this since he's a classic soulless sociopath.

Pretty sure I saw multiple reports that during the first retaliatory bombing, American troops were on the ground operating SAMs, so we didn't sit anything out at any time.
