 In addition, the reason the US has a "special relationship" with Israel and always defends Israel no matter what is not because the US is entirely run by Jews (although there are a lot of them with a lot of power), but because Israel and the US made a secret deal --- the US convinced Israel not to develop nukes, and in exchange the US would always defend them.
