So it's now suddenly Israel's fault that Israel is surrounded by hostile countries that require billions of dollars in foreign aid to not attempt to exterminate six million more Jews. Gotcha.
Considering that Israel is a country created by Zionists settling in territory that prior to the Zionist movement had been largely populated to Arabs, I'd say it is indeed Israel's fault that it is surrounded by hostile countries. While that doesn't excuse that hostility or the potential results of it, it certainly explains it.

I like how you toss this out as if it really changes anything. Well, I guess the guy behind a billboard is a Holocaust denier, so now we should just become Likudniks and support expansionist foreign policy in Israel.

You're trying to muddy the waters to stifle discussion.

Again, would you be willing to say "Well, this KKK leader has good ideas on tax policy, so I guess it's okay that he's put up a billboard"?

Since your strawman would likely be a Republican, it's doubtful he'd have a good tax policy.  But to use a famous example, the fact that Hitler was a vegetarian doesn't make vegetarianism bad. Not that this billboard is all that good. Using the phrase "America First" makes it abundantly clear that the sponsor was more interested in agitation than serious consideration of how much we waste in subsidizing Israel.
