I mean, for starters this argument states as fact a number of points that are questionable. Sure, I'll grant the US holds Israel up as a strategic point in the Middle East. We do the same around the world and so do other nations in support of the same. Russia did/does the same thing with Cuba, for instance.
The rest of the argument about petrodollars, economics, one-state solutions, and IMF loans is conspiracy theory and conjecture masqueraded as fact. One book about it doesn't make it true. It's not worth disproving because the poster is gish-galloping garbage.
