John Mearsheimer also argues this and he is no antisemite. It's possible that Israel is a proxy of the US Empire while it's domestic lobby group has inordinate influence on US politics. Both things can be true.

Yep, both are true, but the balance of power is still heavily in the US's favor. Israel has counter-influence, of course, but at the end of the day it's the US that holds all of the cards.
