Surveys have shown that Israel isn’t even on the radar of American Jews.
“Asked to rank which issues were most important to their vote for president, about half of American Jews cited the economy, and 15 percent cited the growing gap between the rich and the poor. Concern about Israel or Iran ranked very low, even when respondents were asked for the second most important issue that would determine their vote for president.”
Proving your point.

“PRRIs Jewish Values Survey found that only 4% of American Jews identified Israel as the most important issue driving their vote for their president in the 2012 election. The AJC survey similarly found only 6% saying U.S.Israel relations is the most important issue determining their vote for president.
“The AJC survey also allowed respondents to pick their second and third most important issues for their 2012 presidential vote, and U.S.-Israel relations registered also registered relatively low as an important voting priority on each of those lists (9% and 8% respectively)”

I think it used to be, but modernism has corrupted everyone's perception of what is important and skewed our thinking towards inane pop culture.
