Seriously, why is the USA supporting Israel?

I'm back on my BS 🤪@lemmy.world to Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world – 219 points –

The US is supporting Israel through what we can mostly all agree is a genocide of the Gazans. Clearly, Biden isn't a genocidal maniac, yet he's all in with unwavering support. Why are we doing this? There has to be a logical reason that isn't just "we want Israel to kill everyone in Gaza and take their land a la lebensraum."

We know this is an emotional topic, so please be respectful of each other so that we can have open and clear authentic discussion on the matter.

Christofascists and Zionists are pretty good friends, and as they are at the head of both countries it's pretty reasonable for them to support eachother country.

It's the same picture. Evangelical Christians are Zionists, because the Jews returning to the Holy Land is a precondition for the Rapture.

(They don't actually give a flying fuck about the Jewish people themselves, to be clear. They just wanna get Raptured.)

You're underestimating the impact of their hatred of Muslims. They looooove this. Two kinds of infidel killing each other? The kind they admit needs to exist killing the kind they don't?

They're all hard as rocks.

This. They believe Jews belong in Israel which will bring the 2nd coming of Jesus and the rapture.

It's called Christian dominionism.
