as sometimes happens, I agree with a Calvinist
While I am not real big on eschatology and Israel's role in prophecy, I see Israel as a good ally. And anyone who the moslems don't like is my friend.
Israel is our only friend in that area of the world.
We even have helped enemies --- why not friends??
No, Israel is one of the few countries that is one of our allies in the Middle East, one of the few liberal democracies there, and they need all the support they can get.
This does not mean we should blindly support everything they do—we shouldn't, and I don't, especially not Netanyahu's radical plan to annex more of the West Bank, which will virtually destroy any chance of a two-state solution.
But, we should generally support their right to self-defense against the religious fundamentalist Islamic extremists surrounding them.

We're in the politics section....Maybe because they are taking the homes and lives of Palestinian Christians as well? Make no mistake the current Israeli regime is only interested in one thing, Israeli supremacy. I know many Christian Refugees from that region who have a hard time forgiving Israel for its actions against them. There are many Jews in Israel who stand against the racism of the current government.

You did not see the USS Liberty get attacked? You did not see Israel surprise attack pretty much all their unsuspecting neighbors in 1967?
