Fine- time to support Israel. I make a good Devil's Advocate anyways.
We seem to be on the bad sides of every nation in the Middle East, except Israel. They are the only shred of territory that supports us, and if they die, we lose our only ally. Besides, the Western Powers (who, incidentally, are much more important than the Middle Eastern countries
right now) would be totally offended if we let Israel die. And the Arabs
still wouldn't appreciate us for it!
