It IS a political discussion however. How can one talk about a weapons system used in an asymmetrical war without being political?
Sorry, but the Torah is historical fact just as much as the bible or the Qur'an, and are we to accept every claim as fact? Either way, it's a state based on fundamentalist dogma, so I'm not certain what history you think I should be learning. I think the western interests around Suez and the desire to prevent an ascendant Iran on the post-war years are far more relevant to why Israel is.
Edit: not sure how you can say that you don't support it all yet you volunteered. That's the very definition of support.
