I think it goes back to when Israel rejected the USSR as their allies (after they reclaimed their nation) and claimed the US as their friends. Vendetta ever since with commies. Goes waaaaaaaaay back with muzzies, which is why they seem to have a coalition.
That was the doing of Eddie Jacobson.
George Catlett Marshall had exchanged his uniform and four stars for a double-breasted suit to become Harry Truman's Secretary of State. Marshall argued against recognition of Israel because it would anger the Arabs, who were becoming an important source of oil. He also believed that it would give the Soviets a handle in the Middle East as they swung toward support of the Arabs.
Eddie Jacobson had been Truman's partner in a men's clothing store in Kansas City that went bust during the Depression, which caused Truman to move into politics. Jacobson broke down in tears over the phone, begging President Truman to recognize Israel. "Goddammit, Eddie," Truman said, "stop crying! I'll do it!"
And that's how we were the first to recognize Israel.
It is interesting that the USSR was one of the first nations to recognize the new state of Israel. I think old Joe Stalin
thought that the socialists in Israel would be his allies in causing “mischief” in the Arab world.
