    Has he tried running three circles then getting on his knees and barking? Israel promises he can have him a bonus ice cream if he does that.

      Yeah, but what if someone also set a precedent that if you’re the victim of an admittedly awful terror attack, you can spend the next 20 years killing anyone you want.

      He literally is beholden to the defense contractors. Seems like all they care about is selling bombs, so we’re stuck. Israel is our 51st state.

        Shit, I’m glad I’m not literally beholden to my own contractor. “You need to build a second floor” “But I don’t want a second floor. Can we just go ahead with the bathroom?” “NO! AND YOU’RE GETTING AN ELEVATOR.”

    It’s insane that a country whose economy is 1/8th that of California alone and whose population is 35x smaller has the US by the balls in this way.

      For some context, California has the fourth or fifth largest economy in the world when compared to nations.

      So seems a bit misleading to compare it to that particular state. Unless you were doing it for effect

      Between Israel militarily, Russia politically, and China economically, it’s a wonder we are still even asked to vote.

      “The bombs are purely for decoration, not destruction. But they’re yours now, so… do whatever you want with them, we don’t care.”

      -United States, sometime after the settler colony of Israel was formed

      Netanyahu even approved the bombing of Lebanon’s Capital, using US built Bombs and US built Planes, while on US Soil, with the approval of another 8.7 Billion Dollars of Military Weapons to Israel.

      Saw some idiot on Al Jazeera say “stopping weapons transfers really won’t do anything, as the US has given them enough to last years and years.” (they also have domestic production)

      Like, he’s right but holy fucking shit, dude.

        Even if they have reserve weapons, they are still reliant of a steady flow of US Military Weapons. If that ends, they are in major trouble. Especially with the Internal unrest in Israel and their reputation on the international stage.

          Absolutely. Of all places to see rhetoric like that, Al Jazeera? Granted, it was just some US Defense dog they were interviewing about the current escalation.
