I mean, there was the Levon Affair, where in the 1950s Israel planned to blow up British and American civilians in a false flag… Then there was the Numec Affair… Where they stole Uranium from America to start their weapons nuclear program, and the USS Liberty incident, where they killed 34 Americans and wounded 170 others… That’s not even getting into their infiltration of the American governments (to the point of getting in reach of most politicians and Presidents)… And operations on American soil.
Anyone thinking Israel is some defensive tool for America has things backwards. Israel is a foreign state actor who has taken influence over large parts of American policies and regional power… And if China becomes the world’s super power, Israel will try the same moves there.
This is the “anyone but us” mentality they’re now known for… And they think it’s great, which is why the country is mostly right wing. That and conspiracy theories about the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin. (carried out by rightists, but conspiracy theories largely blame the left).
