Would be really helpful if explained in Marxist terms, especially whether first world capital/superprofits are diverted to Israel in amounts not earned by providing services to power, or having Israel around is unprofitable/counterproductive to US aims/interests. Do other countries experience the same?

I think the US provides Israel a lot of indulgences. Israel gets things that the US doesn't have partly because it's cheaper to provide them to a small state, but more importantly because they have to provide them. It is part of what props up the state of Israel by giving them internal/domestic support.
