Most Christians today subscribe to theology that believes “Israel” refers to the body of believers in Christ, and not to the modern state of Israel.
It’s rather repugnant and dishonest to jump into comparisons with Hitler and smearing them all with claims to anti semitism.
Yes, you can still support modern Israel and Jews even if you believe “There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”

This may be partially true, however those who spiritualize "Israel" will always bed forced to choose between "Jesus" and "Barabbas", "The Jews" and the "Palestinians", "God's Word" and "Oil Money". Herod loved the teachings to John the Baptist, but in the end he was forced to choose and he did not chose wisely. In fact, when Jesus comes back to judge the world, much of it is based on how people treated the Jews...
Joel 3:1 For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem, 2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land. 3 And they have cast lots for my people; and have given a boy for an harlot , and sold a girl for wine, that they might drink .
