America (re)created Israel by force, without asking anybody who lived there, except for one ethnic group. We set Israel up to be forever embroiled in war. The bad things Israel does are totally justified because they're constantly being attacked.
They are always being attacked for a lot of reasons:
1. Israel's creation, by force, by foreign powers.
2. Israel's willingness to act as the USA's proxy.
3. USA's willingness to support any and all adventurism by Israel.
4. Israel's great success defending itself.
5. Israel's hypocrisy of maintaining an ethno-state with the trappings of democracy.
Israel's not pure bad guy. The constant attacks from safe havens in neighboring countries makes Israel aggressive towards neighboring countries. People forget that Israel gave up the Golan Heights, only to be attacked by missiles and artillery from the Heights, which they re-took and refused to give up.
Maybe I'm remembering wrong, but from a distance, whether I'm right or wrong on the details, the fundamentals are pretty clear. Protecting and preserving Israel (and Western interests) in the Middle East, by force of arms, creates thousands of new terrorists every year. The terrorists are bad. Spanish Guerrilleros in the Peninsular War (against Napoleon) were bad. But to THEM, they were locked in an ongoing, asymmetric war, where the enemy had modern weapons and they had nothing but determination and past atrocities against them and/or their families driving them.
The USA has no thought of exiting, let alone getting as far as an exit strategy. There will either be forever war in the region or a relatively brief period of chaos after the USA pulls out. Either way, it's going to be bloody. Do we rip off the Band-Aid or do we do nothing until we have to amputate the arm?
