    Most of the people that agree with Israel I’ve come across are very religious and can’t comprehend that they are wrong because they are on the side of the good guys in the bible. It doesn’t matter if you show them sources. They have spent their whole life closing their eyes to anything that threatens their worldview

      I’m being sincere in that question, I don’t have much information about the Bible. But how are they the good guys when they killed Jesus? Isn’t that reason enough to think they are not the good guys?

        You’re mostly right and the Christian church has been deeply antisemitic for most of its history.

        The Holocaust had a deeply chilling effect on those aspects of the Christian church and while the overt antisemitism has largely vanished the last 80 years, the theology of most Christians still has antisemitic thought baked in to it.
