Summary
Former CIA Director Leon Panetta warned that Trump’s return to the White House could embolden Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, giving him a “blank check” in the Middle East and increasing the risk of war with Iran.
Panetta expressed concern that Trump would support Netanyahu’s aggressive stance against Iran without restraint, potentially worsening regional instability.
Panetta also predicted Trump might allow Russia to retain parts of Ukraine if he returns to office, though he doubted Trump’s negotiation skills.
He criticized Trump’s approach to foreign policy, suggesting Trump would be inclined to “capitulate” to authoritarian leaders, which may not sit well with some Republicans.
I have 13 months of daily war crimes, regional escalations, and staunch military support from the Biden administration that says I’m right.
And you are privy to all backroom discussions to know that Israel has gotten everything they want from the U.S.?
What is your security clearance level?
If you’re just going to disregard what I say simply because you don’t like it or agree with it, then why are you even bothering talking to me?
I’m going to disregard what you say because unless you know about what is going on behind the scenes, your claims have no merit.
My claims are based on actual events that have happened over the past 13 months. What are yours based on?
Repeating that doesn’t change the fact that you do not know what is going on behind the scenes so you cannot know if Israel has gotten everything they have wanted from the U.S.
That is not something you have been made privy to unless you have the security clearance.
So at what point would you say that Biden has been giving Israel all the support they want or need in their genocidal campaign? How many arms shipments, troop deployments, and monetary relief packages does it take for you to arrive to this conclusion in your mind?
I wouldn’t say because I am not privy to that information either.
I do know what Trump has said he will do. I see no reason to disbelieve him.
So previous actions have no bearing here? If Israel came out and said that they intend to leave Gaza if Hamas no longer exists, would believe them? Or would you say they’re full of shit like any rational person would do?
