Kurds support Israel and oppose Turkey. Americans and Israelis support Turkey which doesn't support its supporters.

You have found them but we support their enemies. They are Kurds who for political reasons overriding Islam support Israel and hate the Arabs. The problem with them is though that their main enemy is Turkey - the US' beloved and misbehaving child (whose anti-Semitism only the blind can't see) and hence the Kurds have little chance to do any good for Israel while the US allows the Turks to terrorize and invade Kurdistan and the Israelis live in a dreamworld of the Israeli-Turkish friendship. You see ... even if we manage to find some pro-Israeli Moslems, we make them useless.
