    Well the precapitalist history of the region is the reason many Jews wanted a state there and useful for getting some people on board, but not the reason this actually happened, or the reason the USA is so invested in the area. Ancient shit remains ancient and is eventually forgotten unless there is actually something else going on. Hence the continual improvement of the relations between Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Israel.

      Right. But when you're thinking of why psycho christians in the west so strongly support Israel, it isn't because of an improvement in relations with Saudi.

        No, I am saying that the Saudis and the UAE are now all buddy buddy with Israel because of shared interests, despite the supposed deep cultural animosity.
