I think it's important to separate the power from the people here. I don't know anyone who is benefiting financially from what's happening with Israel. However, I do think that ties with America is the main thing keeping Israel from carpet-bombing neighbouring Arab countries.

The West didn't give Kosovo and Bosnia its Muslim population. The Ottomans did. That those people have functioning states only helps ensure stability in Europe.
I doubt Islam can be wiped out, but it can be severely weakened by armed conflict. Muslims respect one thing: dominance in war. If they lose wars they become demoralized and begin to question their faith.

Most Ashkenazi Jews look pretty European. I have seen more Ashkenazi Jews that look European than Semitic.
This is because all Ashkenazi Jews have Celto-Germanic admixture because they are all originally from the Rhineland and South Germany after the Roman Empire put them there, thats when they got genes from the local Germanic population. It was only after they mixed in with what would become the German population that they moved to Eastern Europe, hence Eastern European Jews. Now don't get me wrong some Jews do look more Semitic than European probably due to genetic re-combination but i'd say they are mostly European (Celto-Germanic).
