I meant that Israel state often try to extinguish the fire with more fuel, USA could have interests in conflicts and war in ME, but that's against Israel people interests. Iran/Israel tensions is a example.
Apparently you don't live in America? It is not the USA Dog wagging the Israeli Tail. It is the Israeli Tail Wagging the American Dog.
From Carter to to Bush Sr. to Obama, various American Presidents tried to persuade Israelis to come to compromise along the 1967 borders and the Saudi Peace Plan of 2002 would have the Muslim world's support; but Israelis have never agreed to give more than what Ehud Barak's 'generous offer' in Camp David 2000.
Fact is that, due to domestic political compulsion, led by the Israeli Lobby, America has become Israel's hostage in the middle east. What you said is reverse of that.
And whatever 'utility' Israel might have during the Cold War for America has been long gone, just like Pakistan's utility was gone after 1989 when the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan ended. But Pakistan didn't / doesn't have the Lobbies like Israel's in America so Pakistan was truly dumped.
