Because America is undisciplined in its approach to nationhood and interest, so in its approach to international relationships it is easily swooned by amateurish flimflam that seems expedient for serving the various short-term purposes of domestic political fractions.
Close indentification with Israel in the current situation would be an major diseaster for America's ability to protect its hegemonic position in the world against competing powers such as China and Russia. It would be instrumental in America's inability to secure a ring of containment around China and Russia in western and central Asia.
