You would never see them bend over backwards for blacks, Mexican Americans or gays. When they get up on their soapboxes, they look hypocritical when you consider how they’ve put Trump on a pedestal.

Repubs stand up for all, w/o special treatment for any-which is discrimination against those not bestowed special treatment.

GOP has created one of the most prosperous times in history for blacks and Mexicans. Not sure I agree with your premise.

And they suddenly decided to do this....like right around 9/11?

That's fantastic. Trillions of dollars are/were involved.

In case you think my answer is off the wall....here it is in nicer terms by those who study it:

"According to political scientists, two fundamental forces combined to transform the GOP into the hardcore pro-Israel party we know today. First, the rise of the religious right, which sees hard-line support for Israel as a religious obligation. Second, the neoconservative movement successfully convinced most Republican leaders that being pro-Israel should be a core conservative value."

Note - Neo-Con is short for trillions down the tube and an unlimited Security State and spending. "Conservatives" like Israel because of the testing grounds for war toys, and partnerships in an ultimate security state (which Israel needs...but we don't...and shouldn't).

Anyway, I think my answer is close to the mark. Folks can feel free to make up others.
The polling shows a marked change....right along with the ride of the neo-cons in the early 2000's.

Political parties don't create economies.

...and yet American Jews vote for the Democrats at a rate of 70-75%.
