It seems that might be poorly worded in the rules, but I think that the gist of it is that you may only place inf in country that is adjacent to at least one of your inf markers (or home country) AFTER the event that triggered is resolved.
In this case Suez Crisis removes all the inf, so no USA player won't be able to place any inf, since at the beginning of his play for OPS there was no inf in Israel.

This is how I've always played it as wll. Howver, initially I was going to agree with Pedro, but after reading through 6.1 a few more times I'm inclined to stick with our original interpretation. Paring down the sentence to its main thrust, it is "... markers must be placed with ... friendly markers ..." The rest of the sentence just qualifies what friendly markers can be used.
The 'with' implies the friendly markers must still be on the board when you place the new ones. If they are not on the board, then the new markers are not 'with' the existing friendly markers.
Pedro, I'll give you points for creative interpretation, but in this case I don't think it holds up.
