”T. E. Bromley, first secretary in the British embassy in Washington in 1946 said that sympathy for Zionist demands ‘emanated from “idealists such school-teachers, professors, and social workers, who are responsible for much that is best in American life,” groups that generally harbored liberal views and commonly championed the underdog.’ ((Source Post-Holocaust Politics by Arieh J. Kochavi.

So once Israel was able to develop their country and defend themselves, they were no longer useful victims to the West’s liberals, who then threw their support to their new underdog, Moslems in general and Palestinians in particular. To the liberal elitists it is not a question of actual moral actions but rather a status of victimhood. So Israel truly does face a damned if you do and damned if you don’t choice.

Meanwhile, the West’s liberals treat Moslems as mere pets, incapable of being held to any moral standard, but are merely fawned over. That’s why you have the incongruity of Western liberals unwavering support of the most violent, intolerable, misogynistic and conservative cultures on the face of the earth. “
