You would be surprised. Westdale (big DFW-based real estate firm) just did an IPO on the Israeli markets. There's quite a bit of increased biz travel between Texas and Israel, as well as the given religious / tourist travel.
I think AA made a wise move here, as they'll be the only ones flying nonstop to TLV from the middle of America.
