>> It's just that at this stage sanctions have been maxed out.
That is not true. Political will to introduce sanctions is maxed out. And current US administration has even less interest in doing so than previous.
>>But my point is what is the historic motivation for the anti israel movements? It's definitely not out of great sympathy for the palestinians although that's definitely why most Westerners are pro palestinian, but that's just marketing.I think i've established fairly well it all comes back to the Arabs.
Funny enough, no Arab country wants to really help Palestinians, to open borders for refugees. To host palestinians who lost wars with Israel.
- Aerbil313 1y agoIt's common knowledge among people living in Arab countries that most Muslim countries' presidents are a sockpuppet from either the US or Russia. The exceptions are so few they can be counted on one hand. Mohamed Morsi was widely mourned in my not-even-Arab Muslim country when he died 5 years ago, as one of the few democratically elected presidents in the Islamic world. He was overthrown by the 2013 military coup d'état[1]. Currently, the dictator Sisi rules over Egypt, who is not opening the border for Palestinians. US does this regularly. See the US involvement in regime changes around the world[2]. 1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2013_Egyptian_coup_d%27%C3%A9tat https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2013_Egyptian_coup_d%27%C3%A9t... 2: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_involvement_in_regime_change https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_involvement_in_r...
