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.
If you compromise on genocide then you are not a political agent, you’re a sheep that can be herded with enough pressure.
You keep using that triangulation bullshit because your party has been using it to goad their own base into voting for far right policies OE absolutely pathetic band aids.
We’re not falling for it anymore and we’re going to fight against genocide without your worthless party.
People decided to stay at home over this issues or vote and Jill Stein have compromised though. A sheep is someone who would have voted for Trump thinking he’s going to bring peace. If you were aware and you decided to protest vote knowing that there is a high chance Trump was getting back in or you would put some thought into it and know whilst the Dems are also a poor option you could at least have some dialogue, protest etc. Donald will set the national guard on you.
No idea how you voted or if you voted at all but the option you have ended up with is more genocide with a extra pat on the back. Non dem voters who were aware of the Gaza situation knew that this would be the end result, you have fallen for it because you have ended up with Donald Trump. Netanyahu thanks you, as he can finish what he started.
I’ll eat my words if Donald brings quick peace to Gaza and a two state solution but nothing he’s said or done so far shows he is going to do that. So if you knew you could aid Donald getting back into power you also knew and accepted what his stance would be on the Palestinian situation and what the end result would be.
Dem leadership got an ego check but will move on to their speaking engagements and board of directors roles. The Palestinian question is two years out at the midterms and it will likely have been “solved” by Donald. Well done.
