Being a (hated, despised, am haaretz) secular Jew who has an education, earns a living as a dedicated professional, and regularly interacts with all kinds of American non-Jews, I can tall you how real Americans are going to respond:
“So? That’s their problem.”
Americans have no comprehension of what the problem is, so I explain it to them this way: “It’s east vs. west. They want something for nothing while the rest of us work.”
They have no problems understanding the issue after that.
