As an American myself, I’ve asked several people this question. No one seems to know why either. Is it strategic position in the world? I don’t think they have anything the US can exploit besides that really. Am I missing something? Political arguing aside what exactly is the motivation? Thanks for any explanations.
I think it’s a generational thing. After WW2 and the Holocaust there was support for a Jewish homeland. And of course you couldn’t be seen as antisemitic. So the silent generation supported Israel, and the boomers still impacted by post WW2 inherited that mentality. But the next generation is questioning why exactly.
In addition I think the Christians see it as a crusade, whether they use that word or not, and hide it behind all sorts of reasons.
The fact that the West does not provide “guilt-based” support to African nations and India that they devastated shows that the idea of the Holocaust being the reason for the support of Israel is bullshit. A small faction of the victims of the past should not be allowed to do atrocities to another population
I don’t think guilt based is the right word. It’s not guilt.
Should not, but I think it does.
And do I really have to say why the West doesn’t care about Africa?
Why they care about a faction from former victims to become the agressors and the same time not caring about other victims which are the african country?
