Why is Israel the holy cow

So, what's wrong if Americans read Koran. Koran readers once saved thousands of Jews when Crusaders were killing. Was Hitler a Muslim? Why is it that only the Jews can have country because they believe their religious books says so? Why should Jews from Europe come and settle in Israel. They are not from that part of the world? Does anyone advocate poor black Christian Africans and Latin Americans enter USA just because they happen to be Christians? By the way, the Christian leaders of Latin America are more anti-American than most of the Muslim leaders. One more point, when Israelis take the land of the Palestinians they so not just take from the Muslims. They throw away the Christian Palestinians as well. Finally, why should USA guarantee security of Israel? US military has one job and that is to protect USA and the Americans. They should never shed tears to worry about Israelis. If Jews in Israel want American tax payers to give billions of dollars as donation to Israeli government then they should pay and not take money from people of other faiths.
