So long as Israel is a lone beacon of democracy and equality (for it's citizens, at least) in a region overrun with misogynistic, anti-democratic, 19th century nations I think most Americans will identify and sympathize with Israel. I have a wife, a mother, nieces and cousins and so long Israel is the only nation in the area that doesn't stone women to death or condone honor killing of girls, doesn't engage in genital mutilation of women, allows women to drive and have educations and careers, and treats women and full human beings, my sympathies will be with Israel.
