The reason, to put it simply, is that Israelis are war junkies.

Israel is doing that too, but also America has a lot more domestic opposition to its leadership's naked imperialism than Israel. This opposition rarely translates to action making it more or less worthless, but still, Americans do better on the "do you not like naked imperialism" index than Israeli Jews.

    Again purely out of self-interest and their 2 sides cultism.
    Both sides support imperialism, none of their voters care about that.
    They care about domestic issues and that's it, unless foreign policy affects them, making that into a domestic issue also.
    Navel staring and selfish people.
    And I can add deluded and thinking too much of themselves too.
