US policy towards Israel seems to stem from a number of factors so I'm not sure that's the sole reasoning.
The whole region is riven with theocratic non-democracies all of whom share the same invisible sky wizard. They just disagree about the spokesman for said sky wizard.

And a large chunk of U.S. support for Israel comes from Evengelical Christian fundamentalists who believe that the apocalypse will be triggered once
- Israel is back to its old testament borders
- The Jews of Israel all convert to Christianity.
Israeli nationalist politicians, the cynical bastards, know that and still take the money.

I was thinking about this earlier, my assumption is that Trump and the GOP give Israel unwavering support because the Israeli's have almost completed the establishment of a modern, internationally accepted, un-censured, Apartheid state.
This is, has to be, the model that the Republicans want the US to follow, as white Americans will be a minority group from 2027 - so to ensure that white minority rule continues they'll need to disenfranchise those who are not white (and likely also male landowners).
