Can Israel the most powerful country in the world help the Biafran Christians in their struggle for freedom from Nigeria and if not why?

While most Israelis would be enamored with the flattery, Israel is definitely not the most powerful country in the world and currently has its hands full with protecting its own borders. While Israel has, arguably, been the greatest help to fleeing Darfurians and South Sudanese in the past, this was through passive Israeli absorption of refugees, as opposed to active Israeli actions in Sudan.
Israel is very wary of sending large amounts of money to rebels in Muslim-majority countries and/or of sending troops to those areas. It does not want to further antagonize anti-Israeli sentiment, especially in the case of a country like Nigeria which is a Muslim-majority country that maintains relations with Israel. However, if Biafrans do become independent, it is likely that Israel will help prop up an independent Biafra both as a wedge against Muslim-majority states and due to its incredible petroleum resources. This would be similar to the Israeli-South Sudanese relationship.
