There are a variety of reasons:
1) Strategic Intelligence: The Israeli Intelligence Agency Mossad is one of the foremost such organizations in the world. The United States wishes to have cooperation with this agency to a good degree to be able to monitor threats against itself.
2) Cold War Rivalry: The Soviet Union began to support the Arabs, so the United States supported Israel as a way to wage a proxy war.
3) Similar Cultures: The United States wished to defend a similar free, democratic state in the Middle East.
4) Economic and Technological Exchanges: Israel, as a first world country, had a lot that it could trade with the United States in terms of goods services.
5) Middle East Control: As Israel became the dominant regional power in the Middle East, the United States weighed having an Alliance with Israel critical for maintaining the balance of power.
6) Jewish and Evangelical Constituencies: Both of these constituencies wish for the American Government to support a Jewish government in Israel and physically occupy very contentious electoral areas.

These competing visions inevitably came into conflict.
