Z, what have the Israelis done to deserve the West's largesse?

Well for one thing they are the only democracy in the area.

And even just what you mentioned, that their culture is more westernized means that in a way we are more connected to them.

Also the US has security agreements and a history of years of friendship with Israel.

And last but not least, Israel doesn't have as a formal part of its basic law or constitution that it will destroy any other country in the region.
