    That makes sense. Its a very weird thing to think anyway, that the most powerful country in history is somehow controlled by a vassal state they helped create, and who’s only able to continue existing due to US support.

      Yep, it’s a hand-washing of the US’s role in Zionism. The consequence of this line of thinking is that the US is merely being used, it sides with the Imperialist Hegemon against its vassal, excusing Imperalism.

      It’s the anti-Zionist Liberal interpretation, excusing the Empire for the deeds its Vassal commits.

        Nailed it. They need to excuse the US and they get to do it in a racist way. Liberal win-win
