    Why the fuck do you think the US should be the world police?

    You do if you think we could do anything to stop Israel from attacking / expanding into Palestine…

    I don’t know why the fuck we support israel the way we do… From what I’ve seen It’s a terrorist state… But I also am not crazy enough to think I know everything about the situation. So I’m not going to armchair quarterback.

      I can see you have a pretty childish understanding of geopolitics. I think if you recontextualize the US’s involvement with Israel to that of the west’s settler colonial project in the middle east, the actions and defenses start to make more sense. For example you might understand that us giving them 70% of their imported munitions and defending them at the UN, while they start wars and destabilize the region isn’t some confusing fluke behavior, it is how the US functions as world police.

      Or to quote Biden,

      Were there not an Israel the USA would have to invent an Israel to protect her interest in the region.

      Past that, your replies are getting increasingly scattered and manic, and I am not interested in engaging with this.
