My congressmen said "Israel is our alley and always will be no matter what." I thought that was oddly strong for an elected representative to say. He's a "Catholic" to boot; in theory, Catholics don't buy into the 'premillennial dispensationalism' that make Protestants so enamored with Israel. Frankly after the vid, I assume he's a diddler and AIPAC has the receipts.

Yup, you hear it time and time again. Nothing should be unconditional, and your own country should always come first. Like Israel? Alright. Want to be allies with Israel? Sure, if it's mutually beneficial. Back up Israel if there's trouble? Yeah, if they're not the ones in the wrong.
But unconditional support? Hell no.
You represent America, not Israel. You serve America, not Israel...in theory at least.
