For some odd reason, the US government is in love with Israel…
Not that surprising with religious fundamentalists needing Israel to exist to bring about the apocalypse. Also, they buy lots of US military goods with the money the US gives them so it is basically a massive money laundering project. When I worked at Lockheed we had specific training thag we couldn’t do any business with anyone critical of Israel…
It also creates instability in the middle east which serves US interests.
It’s more of this, I see the fundamentalist angle is just tertiary and coincidental. The GOP (along with the Dems) would still follow the same line without any Holy Land contrivances.
tertiary and coincidental.
I would consider it more “convenient and leveraged”, but yeah you have a point
