      Israel is a strategic location for the US to maintain military power in both the Middle East and northern Europe.

      The US has access to nuclear capable weapons in Israel and that keeps Moscow in check.

      current leadership in Israel is well known to be sympathetic to Russian influence and is likely tempted by the goal to eradicate all Muslims, something Moscow is likely to allow.

      Should Israel defect to Putin’s regime, the US would lose military influence and superiority in the area and it would likely set the US back decades.

      for Iran to attack Israel, they are forcing the US to make a choice. Publicly commit to be in cooperation with the administration that continuously commits crimes against humanity, or to step away from supporting the admin and thus step away from a strategic point.

      Without the support of the US or Russia Israel will fall, it’s only a matter of time. at that point Iran is in the best position to take over and they will do so through Iraq and Jordan.

      it’s in Russian best interests to support both Iran and Israel to fight so the US continues to focus assets on stabilizing Israel instead of Ukraine. To them, it doesn’t matter who wins or loses. As long as both Israel and Iran play Moscow’s game, Russia wins.

      Furthermore, Russia can use the turmoil and brutal imagery from Israeli forces and sow the seeds of propaganda online of, “look what Joe Biden is doing! Do you want more of this?”

      Russia wants a Trump presidency because they get everything they want. They get US out of Israel, out of Ukraine, and would have a singular position in Germany, which is weak when it stands without Israel.

      It’s pathetic how afraid Moscow is of Harris, especially when they talk a big talk about how big their nuclear dicks are.

      The only way we got Ukrainian aid was by passing Israeli aid.

      I don’t like it either, but it’s a price I’m willing to pay to stop Russia and China from expanding their despotism.

      I know you disagree and would rather sell Ukraine down the river for Gaza, and good for you, but if Ukraine fell in 2012 domestic pressure on Xi to take Taiwan would be unstoppable, and this is exactly how WW2 started, momentum, we need to make invasion too expensive to contemplate.

        Yes, that’s the problem. Why not fund the defense of ukraine and palestine?

        You’re willing to collaborate with genocidal fascists? Gross.

        Fascism won’t stop fascism. This isn’t a baseball game. Grow up.

          There’s something wrong with you, I don’t know if it’s ignorance or what.

          We sided with Stalin against Hitler.

          Fascism did stop fascism, very well in fact, it’s one of the few things that does because only fascists are willing to spend lives like they are.
