The best support we can give Israel is to promise the world that any Nation who attacks Israel with the intent of destroying Israel, or committing genocide against people with Jewish ancestry, will cease to exist.

Well, if it's true, I can't say I'm thrilled, but not all that surprised either.
I say "if true," cuz the website is clearly a militant, pro-Zionist site, and the link is to MEMRI, which is an Israeli intelligence front, a black propaganda operation.
For all that, I'm sure Palestinians are angry and are denouncing Israel and Sharon. It's an ugly situation, and both sides have committed terrible crimes. That's why they call it war.
As for your policy recommendations, I don't agree with you. I don't see that US interest and Israeli interests necessarily coincide. Sometimes they're the tail wagging the dog, as the National Interest has written. Israeli policies often harm US interests in the region. I would say that a lot of their military rules of engagement in the Occupied Territories fit the definition of "collective punishment," a war crime under international law.
I'm a Jew, and I no longer have much use for the State of Israel. I don't want them representing me - I'm not a Zionist. I don't believe in the slogan, "a land without people for a people without a land" when there were clearly people living in Palestine before Jews immigrated there. It was wrong to forcibly remove Palestinians from their homes, and the intifada won't end until there's some kind of just settlement.
And the last thing we need is for militant Christian conservatives to come out and "defend" Judaism on our behalf. Thanks, but struggle for your own cause, please.

Jewish people are wonderful, but the Israeli government does NOT need any more support than they already get and have been getting from us. We need to take care of our own country for a change and stop funding and arming another nation with rediculous amounts of funds and American lives. We're fighting their wars and advocating their causes. I say we need to do a little more for ourselves for a change.

Are you related to the Russians in Israel?
Did you migrated here from Russia too?
Americans need to clean & defend the USA before flopping around like a fish without water.

I'm always outraged by attacks against Israel by those you named! It's been all thru the Bible those who have gone against Israel faced God's wrath. These people are facing what I think could be God pulling His blessings off of our country for not backing them up. Besides, Israel is an ally, why in the world would these people turn on someone who is at our side?! I just can't figure this out!

Americans aren't outraged because they they don't watch Palestinian TV, and more importantly, this is not news Palestinians have hated Jews since 1948.
And if you think there's not an good amount of vitriol on the Israeli's side, you're very under-informed. Search this phrase:
"Israeli children sign missiles meant for Lebanon"
