Sure, I’m aware of and also sensitive to those tropes, too. Israel is the US’s rabid dog, but it’s also a more complicated and circular relationship than that. Israel takes orders from the CIA and State dept., but also bribes lower level politics through lobbies. Israel is a client state, but they also see themselves as superior to the US… and everyone else on earth. It’s what you get with ethno-supremacy. Israeli media shows a lot of contempt for the US and “the west”. The media is owned by the bourgeois, but the big money spigot is the black hole of US defense spending, which connects media with US DOD, CIA, FBI, all branches of the US military, MI6, Mosad, etc. All the narrative management from empire media propaganda originates from the highest level of the state, which means the freak coalition of “intelligence” groups, which does include Mosad because that’s the level of cooperation the US has with the Zionist entity.
