Because the USA helped created Israel. Turning our back on Israel would be like turning our back on our children.

You think there is a lot of Israeli money in America? Wanna take a guess on how much American money is in Israel?
It has nothing to do with the money. It has EVERYTHING to do with the fact that they are a stable, free democracy in a region FULL of evil.

Mostly it's the millions of dollars of campaign contributions given to the washington politicians by the wealthy Jews on the East Coast... mostly New York.
You're hear about how Israel is the main friendly power in the middle east but that's not as true as it was during the cold war... NOW... it's just the campaign pay off money the politicos get.

Because Israel is the one democracy in the middle east and a loyal friend to the USA.
Both Israel and USA are the targets for Islamic extremists.
And dont say its for the money because the Saudis could buy everyone off. Read "The Princes of Darkness" by Laurent Murawiec. Rowman and Littlefield.

Because much of what the US calls "the holy land" is located in Israels territory. Christian fanatics will help to protect that area at all cost! The US is mostly Christian. The US sell billions of US$ worth of weaponry to Israel and they sell to Iraq. Iraq uses the weapons to kill US troops! Much about economics. Besides in the US stock market, where else is this Israeli money you speak of?

Because Israel fights terrorists and has since the 70's and maybe if we'd been fighting them that long, too, we could have this problem licked by now.
And because Israel is our only real ally in the Middle East. None of the other countries have the gonads to stand up to Hamas, Hezbollah, and the jihadists.
I am all for Israel.

Republicans tend to support Israel because the religious right supports Israel.
Democrats tend to support Israel because of the influence of Jewish members of the Democratic party.
Also, Israel was supported during the cold war because Israel and Turkey were the only democracies in the Mideast.

Because White America started with criminals who fled Europe and found heaven in the new world and Israel was the heaven for all Jewish criminals around the world. So don’t be surprised if a criminal supports another criminal.
Disclaimer: I don’t talk about minorities in America, just the ignorant Bush and the stinky butt Rice (witch of Darkness) and their supporters.

2 reasons.
1: they are the only democratic country in the middle east.
2: The Israeli Air Force have the best trained pilots in the world.
(yes even better than our own air force)

America always supports the underdog. Israel is a nation that is surrounded by countries trying to destroy it. Wouldn't you want the most powerful country in the world if we were in Israel's shoes?
