I genuinely want to understand this. Are the defense systems we are sending so advanced that we can’t let anyone else operate them?

I know politics aren’t allowed here, so i want to stress that I just want to know why this is happening.

    The US has decided it wants those missiles intercepted,

    Assuming the weapons system and personnel in question are used exclusively for missile intercept, then this deployment can be seen as an attempt to reduce further escalation of the ongoing conflict.

      Well it’s an explicitly defensive system.

      That said, if it’s use allows Israel to be more brazen, then it’s all zero sum.
