        That is literally the reason, not sure why you “/s” flagged it. The USA would still support Israel without the American evangelicals because of the large jewish population of the USA, but Israel would have a much more conciliatory approach toward the Palestinians.

      It gives it control over the area by keeping israel dependent on the US. Part of why the US actually wants the conflicts at the area to remain. This is basically the cold war phase 2.
