Well I reject the tin-foil hat words you’d like me to use, and limit myself to a Jewish writer, born in London, but who was based in the US for many years- he has since died.
This was from 2005 /2006
Israel continues to mock its American patron, building illegal settlements in cynical disregard of the “road map.” The President of the United States of America has been reduced to a ventriloquist’s dummy, pitifully reciting the Israeli cabinet line
There is an obvious tension between the word patron in the first sentence and the ventriloquist’s dummy of the second, but the suggestion is clear that America will do what Israel asks/tells.
Israel: a country which for fifty years has rested its entire national strategy on preventive wars, disproportionate retaliation, and efforts to redesign the map of the whole Middle East.
and on the US in Iraq but making a comparison with Israel
It is one thing for the US unconditionally to underwrite Israel’s behaviour (though in neither country’s interest, as some Israeli commentators at least have remarked). But for the US to imitate Israel wholesale, to import that tiny country’s self-destructive, intemperate response to any hostility or opposition and to make it the leitmotif of American foreign policy: that is simply bizarre. So the US underwrites Israel unconditionally, and Israel responds intemperately to any hostility or opposition.
The writer also has another quote that non-Jewish journalists in America are afraid to print anything hostile to the state of Israel for fear of accusations of anti-semitism. I’ll can’t find it at the moment but will continue to look.
I think the extent to which these things are true has waxed and waned in the last twenty years, but they aren’t crazy ideas at all.
