Ultimately it's maybe a bit of a misconception to say that any country in our neocolonial age is strictly speaking a puppet state of one specific other country. That is to say, the Zionist entity is really an institution that serves imperialism as a whole, and is beholden to imperialists as a whole: not a cartoon of a flag-map with one blue six-pointed star being leashed by another flag-map with fifty white five-pointed ones, but rather something more abstract and atomic: the sum of the individual judgments and actions of every single capitalist on the planet, regarding their immediate vs long-term personal interests vis-à-vis the immediate vs long-term interests of their sort of sub-class "cliques" within the capitalist class vis-à-vis the immediate vs long-term interests of the capitalist class as a whole.

Like, this makes sense, right? And I think it explains this sort of behavior better than the cartoon of a simple dog or marionette.
