What I find immensely interesting is the fact that some dude, said to be the Messiah, bounced around and was executed as Isaiah predicted. This guy, it is said, fulfilled all the prophecies yet his own people rejected him. The Jews are scattered. Some say a price payed for once again rejecting Yawheh, and his Son the Messiah. The Temple is destroyed, blood sacrifice comes to an end as there is no longer an Arc of the Covenant..2000ish years elapse and guess what spirit, embodied in a Nation, is the greatest friend Israel ever had?...The spirit of Jesus is the very heart of this great nation, America, and all but the liberal Christians stand firmly, resolutely, on Israel's side...2000 years later and Jesus, the embodiment of the Father on Earth, still loves and protects his people.
Interestingly all those nations, and people, that reject Christ, or have a more liberal Christian theology, tend to despise the Jews or take sides with their mortal enemies.

The only problem with your belief system is that you think the modern state of Israel is the same as biblical Israel, and it is of course no such thing.
Biblical Israel has been gone a long time, and has yet to return, and is unlikely to do so. When they start stoning adulterers and cancel the annual Tel Aviv gay pride parade, then maybe I'll reconsider.
