I have been doing some digging, and I can find no reason we are still acting like Isreals big brother at the playground on lunch time. A prominant Isreali leader even said that Isreal runs America and America knows it. Why must we keep putting our nose in there door over and over when each time it gets slammed. We provide Isreal with money, weapons, and other types of aid. However, Isreal has a fairly stable economy, they have already developed a democratic government, and have one of the largest militaries in the middle east. So why do we have to support them when they offer nothing in return except disrespect. Now I know some people are going to say that we need Isreal as a foot hold in the midle east. Fine. To that I say let them be to make thier own mistakes, and if they need help getting out of a mess, let them go to the UN and ask for help. The UN is just going to ask us to intervene anyway. If we keep babying these countries, they will never be able to survive on there own. They will (and some have) grow depenant on US generosity and begin to expect it all the time. I say cut them loose and let them mature as a country on there own.

There are many ethnicities in America, we are after all a melting pot. Are you saying that these people are running the US and trying to further the goals of Isreal? If thats the case, something should be done.
