I’m going to assume this from the angle of the single most evil type of Christian and not the good natured ones who think Israel should be able to defend itself: to incite the Apocalypse. They are praying every day that Israel destroys the Palestinians and build the Third Temple. Families like the Duggars will give tens of thousands of dollars to finance the building of the Third Temple. They think once it’s built that they’ll be raptured.

But most people look at the average Israeli vs the average Palestinian and it’s a no brainer really.

I don't think it's quite that nefarious for most people. The cognitive dissonance that the fall of Israel would create in the minds of millions of American christians is something they don't want to have to face. As long as Israel exists as an independent Jewish state, they can continue to believe that prophecy will still be fulfilled at some point int he future. Take that away, well...

Most people just want to continue to be able to peacefully accept the narrative in their own minds.
