Why? Why what? Are you asking "why is the US helping Israel?"

There are 5.8 million Jews living in America. There are only 4.8 million Jews in Israel. Israel is a true democracy and is the only one in the Middle East. The Arab nations were backed by the USSR historically and Israel was backed by America during the cold War. When America was attacked on September 11th America began to understand what Israel has been facing for 57 years. Israel stayed out of the Gulf war in 1991 even though Saddam sent 39 scuds at Israeli cities. Israel did the world a favor by destroying the Iraqi Osirak reactor in 1981 which the world didn't realize until 1991 when they saw how crazy Saddam was. Israel promotes peace and tolerance as can be seen by the treatment the Israeli Arabs enjoy in Israel. Israel is a valuable military ally to the US should the US involvement in the Middle East get any stronger. That is why America supports Israel.

Immigration of Jews to America
Jewish populations of the world
Zion is Israel not America. There are so many Jews in America because until 1947 Jews around the world were disallowed entry into Palestine by the British who controlled the land after their victory over the Turkish in 1917. Jews were scattered throughout the world in 70A.D. when Titus sacked Jerusalem. Although a very small Jewish community has survived in Israel since that time the rest have lived in foreign lands for centuries. In Europe most of the surviving Jews have left because of the deep roots of anti-semitism. American Jews remain in America because America is safe for them. In America a Jew is rarely persecuted. Nearly 2 million Jews live in New York City alone. In Germany the attitude towards Jews changed radically in a few short years from You Jews are as German as we are too You Jews are the cause for all of our problems! Israeli Jews aren't too fond of the American Jews lack of bodily support for Israel. After 2000 years being scattered away from an independent Israel you would think that all Jews would want to move to Israel. Too many worship the God of mammon (like so many other Gentiles) and don't want to leave their cushy satety in a foreign country. Let's hope America remains a cushy safe country.

If these two countries were in prison together I think we all know how the relationship would go. Just one question, why?

I don't like the wall because it goes through Israel. Right through Judea and Samaria. It is a future boundary for a theocratic, fascist, terroristic, Muslim state whose main goal is to have a state inplace of Israel not next ot Israel.
actually the wall goes outside of the internationally recognised Israeli boundries and into palestinian territory... clearly a land-grab on the governments part.

The west bank is Judea and Samaria. Israelis call the the Northern west bank Judea and the Southern west bank Samaria. So the fence does go through Judea and Samaria.
