Losurdo has a few good chapters specifically about a lot of the modern german ideological support for zionism in his book War and Revolution.

It's a really complicated subject, dealing with the historical guilt from the judeocide, and supporting Israel being an easy and surface-level way to alleviate that guilt.

No doubt reinforced by enormous amounts of hasbara.
