It seems like you're not understanding the spiritual warfare that's taking place regarding Israel. The hatred and pursuit of the Jews will be unending until the Messiah – Whom, sadly, they didn't recognize in His first appearance – returns to complete their ultimate rescue. They will be viscerally and satanically despised until then. But not by me and millions of other Christians.

You accuse me of hating Jews when I'm trying to find a better path to peace and security for Israel. I believe I've got what you believe exactly right.
I would remind you all of the sentiment expressed by Lord Acton, one of the leading 19th century thinkers in the British conservative tradition that stretches from Burke to Thatcher:At all times sincere friends of freedom have been rare, and its triumphs have been due to minorities, that have prevailed by associating themselves with auxiliaries whose objects often differed from their own; and this association, which is always dangerous, has been sometimes disastrous, by giving to opponents just grounds of opposition, and by kindling dispute over the spoils in the hour of success.
— John Dalberg-Acton, 1st Baron Acton
When folks who identify as "left" get things right, we should regard them as short-term allies, useful auxiliaries in advancing the cause of freedom, not bosom buddies, all the while hoping (though not expecting) that they will see the error of their left-leaning ideas and become conservatives.
