He seems astroturfed. Having opinions like that is a sure sign of a compromised rear guard actor. I doubt he backed down on Gaza for sincere reasons. He's just seeing how much shilling his audience will tolerate.
Given where I've been, and given where the European right is, I find it more believable that someone would think that sincerely. If you buy Israeli hasbara and proactively make their excuses for them, there's no reason not to.
The Bannon/Epstein stuff is just more evidence of it. Them being Ameriphiles in general is suspect and insane, especially if they are keeping it up now.

The European right is compromised though.
Not sure why you think that. It long predated Bannon if you think that's the issue.
You may not find it credible why they support Israel, but it's not much beyond words and diplomatic cover. It's also our only salvation.
