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.

      Bud, they both support it. The difference is that Republicans don’t pretend to care about stuff like this.

        No, the difference is the extent of which they will enable genocide. And I’m not just taking about Gaza.

        It’s a massive fucking difference.

          What limits are being imposed on them currently? They’re already flattening Gaza, attacking UN outposts, and invading other countries and this is all with our warplanes, bombs and tax dollars.
