How many enemies of my enemy are my friends is advisable?
1-The well-known one:
The well-known canoodling of the Evangelicals and the Israeli Government has been going on for around 50+ years.
US evangelicals drive Republican support for Israel [BBC]
Now the evangelicals' only reason is the end-of-times prophecy
You know the one where all the Jewish people return to Israel and are either converted to Christianity or are thrown into the fiery pit and damned for all eternity with the rest of us.

Is the Orange Skidmark meant to be the Anti-Crust[sic] or the Second Cumming[sic] in preparation for the Rupture? I am still confused about that one./s
Now for the lesser-known smooching campaign.
2- Israeli Minister Snuggling Up To Our [European] Neo-Nazis, WTF?
Israeli Minister and the Neo-nazis
What, you say. Behind the bike shed with the holocaust deniers whose only regret is that Adolf didn’t finish the job?
I mean their normal state of Anti-semitism is only superseded by their Islamophobia
Amichai Chikli, a minister in the Netanyahu government who calls Hungary's Viktor Orban 'an exceptional leader,' and has joined a series of ultra-right conventions across Europe, is now speaking at a confab in Spain run by a party once shunned by Israel for welcoming neo-Nazis and Holocaust deniers into its ranks
Amichai Chikli's official title is Minister of Diaspora Affairs and the Struggle Against Antisemitism (he added the second designation when he accepted the position in January of last year). He is officially in charge of strengthening Israel's relationship to Jewish communities worldwide.

Is there any right-wing authoritarian grouping Chikli doesn’t like? Next stop The Kremlin?
All I’ll say:
Beware when your “new friends” start carrying around cutlery.
