No. We don't want to be world police. We want to make money and grow our families.
- PoignardAzur 2y agoIt's a little more than silence. The US is actively selling weapons to Israel, actively sanctioning Israel's biggest enemy/rival Iran (not specifically to help Israel, but still), pressuring other Israel enemies to normalize relations with them, using their Security Council veto to block any UN resolution against Israel, etc. Israel's diplomatic position would be much weaker if they didn't believe that the US would keep supporting them no matter what they do.
- dotancohen 2y ago> Israel's diplomatic position would be much weaker if they didn't believe that the US would keep supporting them no matter what they do. Why do you feel that Israel's diplomatic position needs to be weaker? And how would the Palestinians' diplomatic position be, without the support of Iran, Jordan, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Turkey, Lebanon, Libya, Tunis, and the USSR and now Russia?
- cynicalpeace 2y agoMy comment was in reference to Ukraine/Russia. I don't think we should be involved with Israel/Palestine either
