Israel is just the proxy of the US government. This is America blowing up people. This country is now openly inviting hatred. It's like Trump wants a 911 for himself.

More like, the same oligarchs that control America control Israel.
Trump will attack Iran, probably this year. Expect a false flag. He's been planning this for years. So has Netanyahu.

You can reduce it to individuals by "piercing the veil" of an institution to find its operators (or oligarchs as you say), but that's only an acknowledgement of the monster itself.
Trump and Netanyahu are brazenly doing what they will because of immunity granted by a semi-permanent institution of government. George Washington famously called the USA the "great experiment". We're supposed to have faith in these institutions because they provide us with reliable operation and product at a reasonable cost. Even when they're running smoothly politicians and silent partners use these institutions for personal enrichment.
Now imagine a lesser shield against criminal and civil prosecution. We've expanded on this idea of institutions providing human beings with a limited liability to the business sector. A corporation can enter contracts, take out loans, trade its shares on an exchange, litigate and now political speech too. The Citizens United decision bolstered its political power. We've allowed the fiction of limited liability to run rampant. Obama even christened some "too big to fail". We've created so many monsters. But this one may work counter to human survival.
I think that we need to scale back before corporations get the right to run for office.
