"Obviously you prefer to coddle with Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Qatar, Iraq, UAE and such"

Uh...do you think that's the dichotomy? Do you think it's one or the other?

The US has relationships with lots of countries. Give and take relationships.

No other relationships has the sort of pathetic supplicant behaviour that we see with Israel. American politicians are not hoisting Qatar or Saudi Arabia flags. They aren't giving pathetic fawning four minute standing ovations for random criminal leaders of those countries. They aren't saying "Qatar First" or telling their voters that their first order of business is visiting Qatar to show deference. That would be bizarre behaviour that would immediately raise enormous red flags.

What a bizarre take.

I mean it's just a gift. No favors expected in return?

There are absolutely US politicians who are advocating for those other countries.

We already covered the not a criminal until proven guilty angle.

But yes, the US has considered Israel a close ally and friend and its leaders are well received in the US as are US leaders in Israel.

And yes, the not criminal leader of Saudi Arabia who had a journalist chopped up and violates the rights of his people is also received with great honors in the USA.
