Israel policy

Journal by Sulla

I am not a fan of the traditional American policy when it comes to ultimate defense and support of Israel. Can someone who agrees with it please detail why it is beneficial to the US? Just went through my uncle and inlaws argue about this for several hours and as a libertarian I don't see why I would want my (and my kids) blood and treasure spilled over a foreign nation, in this case Israel. Not looking for "palestine/arabs/muslims literally hitler" or "israel supporters are evil" I just want reasoned points for our support (or lack of support) for either side.
