The loyalty US politicians have towards Israel is mindblowing, the way the managed to hollow out the American political system from inside-out is incredible. The ICC, the great weapon of western imperialism against the global south, they now want to destroy? It's stretching the limits of my incongruity, it's a pressure campaign to put it back in its place at most. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I think the oil from the Middle East is the reason why Israel is so important (for the U.S at least). As the transition from oil takes place Israel will become irrelevant along with most of the Middle East. I mean irrelevant compared to today’s geopolitical role. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I’m in the UK. There are a lot of people who are voting purely on the issue of Israel. For all this time I’ve found that to be quite ridiculous, we have enough problems here so why would a conflict we have little involvement in be your primary issue? I’m starting to see a justification for this view that’s less about support for Palestine. It’s absolutely unacceptable that our governments are being infiltrated and manipulated by foreign powers (Israel). The grip they have over almost the entire political spectrum has become so clear, and it’s genuinely terrifying. It’s also very obvious, more obvious in the UK, that the support is not ideological - it’s corruption, coercion, manipulation. I think I’m potentially there now, I simply cannot vote for you if you’ve been corrupted by Israel. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

US is coming war crimes on their own right. Hegseth is openly proud of them. There is this ever going fiction that American army are these pristine pro-democracy souls that only foreign influence can break. That is just wrong. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
