"Strengthening an alliance that benefits America" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. When I was growing up, I heard a lot of propaganda that the US had to support Israel because both countries were defending democracy, but this is laughably false. The best, most honest answer that glowies could say is that we benefit from Israel's extensive spy network and use them to destabilize the Middle East. But the problem there is that I don't think all of those countries would hate us if we stopped interfering in their self-governance, so we're using Israel to keep a dog at bay that we made rabid in the first place.
