It appears that even giving them your real email account will get you refused from the country.

As a US citizen, I'm disappointed in Israel, and would prefer even less of my tax dollars are used to support them after this.

Israel has an excellent Supreme Court which has stopped behavior like this in the past. From wikipedia:

The Court has ruled on numerous issues relating to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the rights of Arab citizens of Israel, and on discrimination between Jewish groups in Israel. It is unique in that its rulings can intervene in Israel Defense Forces military operations.

Most Israelis are equally ashamed of this. This isn't what your tax dollars support.

So my tax dollars support only the good things they do?
Most of US foreign military aid dollars goes either to various puppet regimes or back to US military contractors. Accepting this aid is a net loss for Israel, because too many strings attached to it.

Most Israeli citizens can't even visit US because they denied visa, so I wouldn't cry because of one US citizen who denied entry to Israel.

US frequently denied entry to Israelis who were born in Iran or similar countries, including leader of largest party in Israel - Shaul Mofaz, at the time Chief of General Staff!
