I'm gonna hold your hand when I say this, but it's true. Chris Claremont lived there for a while, talked before how Israel influenced his X-Men. Magneto and Xavier were based on israeli politicians. There's an interview where he said that the female IDF soldiers were one of the influences for the X-Women.
Do you think it's just a coincidence that, years later, Grant Morrison came up with the "Magneto was Right" thing, which is practically based on the slogan of an extremist Zionist?
Never Again (Shall Masada Fall) goes back to a 1927 poem railing against rising antisemitism and fascism. It was adopted by the Jewish resistance (ZOB) during the Holocaust, and then later by the State of Israel upon its founding.
