It's the other way around, the US wants Israel as an asset and is currently fighting to keep it one despite having been implicated in the accelerated genocide in Palestine, crime of aggression and so on. This is an extremely unpopular policy, and will only become more so over time as current young generations mature with the trauma of having spent years constantly exposed to graphic material from rather heinous atrocities and proud celebrations from the perpetrators. One of the few solutions to this problem that relevant US elites consider viable is to extend control over mass and social media, recently and infamously voiced by Hillary Clinton who says it outright at staged events.

In this context it is important to keep in mind that the bulk of members of the zionist movement are christians from modern denominations. The unnamed "they" you mention are these people, and not to be conflated with the israeli jews or jewish zionists in general, who are a minority influence in the movement.

I'm also fairly certain that the shaky old people chasing this control over communications actually believe that younger generations are more or less brainwashed by what they presumably see on screens, which is likely to be quite the psychological projection.
