    Policy is not necessarily backed by law. The US supports Israel because they’re a friendly power in the Middle East. It’s in the interests of the US to have friends in oil-rich regions. Israel is a check against aggressive Muslim nations (e.g. Iran).

    Given that Christianity is playing far too big a role in politics, it makes sense that Christians would more closely align with Jews than Muslims.

        You don’t understand anything about politics or geopolitical. Glad we’ve cleared that up.
