If the US and Israel are completely aligned in foreign policy, what keeps Israel from just becoming treated as another state of the US?

Its ethnonationalist policies would violate Federal law pretty severely, and then the US is explicitly on the hook for Israel's war crimes, terrorism, assassinations, etc.

The US isn't on the hook for it's own war crimes, terrorism, or assassinations, so that wouldn't matter

Yes, "all's fair in love and war" means you can do anything you want if you can get away with it.
