@BIssahary @BriannaWu Most Repubs support Israel because of End Times Christian theology. I grew up in it. They don’t support Israel or Jews bc it’s the right thing to do, they do it because they think Jesus won’t return until ALL Jews are in Israel. They also believe Jews will have to convert or die
