    Israel doesn’t “run” America.
    At most you can say their lobbyist have massive influence on this issue.

      And i would say this also is the fault of US. It's the ages old money laundering and funnel scheme where US politicians can't just openly steal the budget money so they funnel it to Israel and some of the money get back to them through AIPAC as laundered donations. Only difference is that this is doubly illegal in most other countries in the world but perfectly ok in USA (also note that it isn't the main reason for the staunch support for Israel, they would do it even for free, but a lucrative side grift and adds personal incentive to class interests).
