I really don't think the issue is resolved by appeal to Scripture, and is not a primary doctrine (that must be believed for Salvation) but as a Christian I support Israel because the 'promise' to you has not been rescinded. that means all Jews in Israel or otherwise.

You've got the whole thing wrong.
As a Christian, you ARE Israel.
Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:... For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God. ~~ (Apostle Saint Paul, Romans 9:6 - Galatians 6:15-16)
While I support the modern Secular, Socialist, Christ-Denying "State of Israel" on International Law grounds (anyone has a Right to Self-Defense), the teaching of the Apostle Saint Paul is that the Israel of God is... THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST.
God does not promise blessings to ANYONE for giving "extra-credit kudo points" to a Secular, Socialist State which is predicated upon the Rejection of His Beloved Son.
God never said, "I will reward you if you pledge your total support to a bunch of Christ-rejecting Pharisees who absolutely Hate My only-begotten Son. Yeah, that's really 'My Israel'... sure it is".
If anything, given how much God the Father loves His Son and how much the modern "State of Israel" hates Jesus... you might wanna stay outta the way of His Wrath.
Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in Him. (Psalm 2:12, KJV)
