You could say the same for the Arab League and the Palestinians. The Palestinians are probably the most unfortunate people on earth, they are the most unwanted, yet the most politically used pawns in the middle east. In reality most of those muslim countries don't give a fuck about the Palestinians.
Israel is the glue that holds the middle east together in a sense. It gives muslim countries that otherwise would be at war with eachother a common enemy to focus on. At the same time as long as Israel exists the Saudis will need the United States as insurance to keep everything peaceful. So our relationship with Israel is much more mutual than some would like to think. Without Israel the Islamic world would either descend into chaos through infighting, or focus their full anger and resentment on the West.
