MODERATORS
Deranged logic, Israel is not a strategic keystone to the survival of America.
Like, even if one has drunk the Flavoraid enough to think that what Israel is doing is ok and that it’s not an apartheid state that needs the South Africa treatment; in what fucking reality is Israel not eminently replaceable in the role it plays in US foreign policy? if anything, it is a net negative, a dead weight dragging down US relations with the rest of the region.
It routinely takes unilateral action to throw gas on the metaphorical fires of the region. Like, allies have their own goals and ambitions that diverge sometimes, but you’d expect them to converge occasionally and not actively attempt kneecap each others diplomacy.
You’re thinking of real-world geopolitics. These people tend to me more along the lines of “God only blesses the US because we’re helping to bring about the prerequisite conditions for the apocalypse”.
Religious fundamentalists are the greatest threat to modern civilization
Quite possibly to civilization itself, full stop. Placing fiction before fact is not a sane way to run, well, anything.
I appreciate that you used the correct brand of drink mix rather than continuing the Kool-aid slander.
And they only used that because it was cheaper. The entire massacre was carried out with a total of about $16 worth of ingredients.
Israel isn't even America's most important playmate in the middle east.
Israel isn't even in danger of falling.
Bibi's government is though, thank God.
