Gaza vs Israel - and the winner is?

It has been six years since I returned to the USA from life in Israel. I went to work during the 8 day skirmish and no one said anything to me about Israel. No one at work even talked about what was happening there. Not only that - I wrote a memoir about my life there. What is even more surprising - or not- is that America and Israel are great allies and  the current president even says that  he " has Israel's back". Or not surprising. Soldiers died in Afghanistan and many American's did not notice that either. According to one politician on a news show- no one even knows their names. Now why am I writing all this to make a point - and that is - that the point many Israeli and Jewish efforts to gain support for their cause is pointless really pointless. Many American's are not listening and don't really care, about them and them. Well sure they care , and some do listen, but those that know the truth don't really have to be sold over and over again. So what is the point of all this , really. That Israel has to make their own decisions for their own purposes , world support or not. I can say this because my experience is that few are listening and really don't care except maybe the sensation seekers and news media whose real goal is to sell advertisement than to care.
