Besides AIPAC, the main reason the West, especially the Anglosphere, is so interested in supporting Israel is Christian Zionism, a weird heresy based on some unorthodox interpretation of the Bible. Just goes to show how fringe ideas can cause genuine suffering.
They don't call themselves Christian Zionists. That's what makes these things hard to talk about. It is mostly what I said. Theologically novel interpretations that do not conform to most Christian orthodoxy. On top of that they aren't even logical.
Christians that at home despise progressive polices support a foreign government that looks more progressive than their own conservative politicians in the US.
Much of the issue is the "Theory of Stupidly" all over again. Its all so tiresome.
