Every synagogue on Earth, in all of history, faces Jerusalem. The covenant involves Jews doing certain things and God doing certain things includes Israel as the homeland of the Jews. Some Jewish holidays are celebrated differently- longer- outside of Israel. Ad infinitum

Odd then that our government, which proclaims loudly how sectarian they are would support a State whose sole existance is for the furtherment of a specific religion limited to people by birth. Scratch that, it isn't odd, it is downright ludicrous.

limited to people by birth

That, of course, as you know, is a lie.

The State of Israel, as a political entity, is a free and democratic country where everyone can practice their religion freely.

The Land of Israel is important to Jews.

It is vital for Jews that the Land of Israel be controlled by the State of Israel. That does not prejudice the rights of anyone else.
