    I theorize that this is why most/all US leaders have been pro-Israel. Because if they were anything else, the native population would be like “hey, so what about us and our stolen lands?” and US leaders will absolutely not deal with that.

      I’m pretty sure it’s the money. If minority groups were lobbying just as hard to both parties, the populist leaders would switch.

      300 years of the US not giving a shit about the native population or about appearing hypocritical towards them would argue with your theory.

      There’s not a single US leader who worries what Native Americans would say if they turned against Israel. They would just ignore them like they always have.

      Yes, that! Also for me U.S seems to think that somehow everyone from Middle-East is a terrorist, even though that they are the worst terrorists themselves alongside Russia and Israel.
