Why are you insistent on being wrong (a libertarian)?

I'd honestly pull out of Israel just to save the US gov some money.  The Jews need to be like the Mormons.  The Mormons were fine with making a majority in a place not their homeland (where the Book of Mormon was discovered in upstate NY). The Jews should be fine with settling somewhere where the locals would be willing to give or sell  the land to them.

Being wrong on political questions is subjective.

I don't want to give foreign aid to countries.  I'd rather put America first.

I think the Jewish state doesn't have to exist for Jews to be a protected religion.  If the US pulling out of Israel results in Israel becoming replaced with Palestine, so be it.  The Jews won't be oppressed there.  Palestine welcomed 1/3 of their population in the form of Jewish settlers.  Israel returns the favor by declaring independence.  It would be like if the US welcomed 150 million Hispanic immigrants to the nation, only for the Hispanics to make a nation out of US territory.  This is slightly off topic, but one nice thing with open borders I think is that there will be relatively low numbers of Hispanic immigration compared to the immigration from other parts of the world since Sub saharan Africa, the Muslim world, China, and India have around 4 billion people, around which 40 million would immigrate to the US with an open border system.  A lot of the immigrants would either know English, learn it on their own, or their kids would easily learn it.  Hispanic America only has 650 million people, and only 65 million would come to the US.  Moreover, they are more likely to come to cities then track along desert to get to a place, so I don't see a separatist movement happening with open borders.

So you agree some political ideologies can be objectively wrong?

It depends on the time.  Now, slavery is objectively wrong.  In the 1800s, it was subjectively wrong to some people.
