If you're going to be utilitarian about this (which I applaud btw): those billions of dollars could have gone to aid for Gaza to save far, far more lives. Or the U.S. could have condemned Israel's invasion of Gaza to begin with.

Yes, saving Israeli lives is a good thing. But you have to look at the pattern in which the U.S. is selecting which good things to do in order to spot the evil.
