18. Because fundies are biblical literalists
and the OT is part of the Bible (in fact, their preferred part). Their beliefs about Jews are pretty much what one would expect from biblical literalists who count the OT as part of their Bible.

They of course think that the Jews are ultimately going to be condemned to an eternity in hell unless they accept Jesus, but while they're here, they are God's Chosen People, because the Bible says so. They support Israel because it is scheduled to host the Apocalypse.
