I mean, a billionaire runs the country. First thing he did was to invite another billionaire and give him access to quite extensive data of every US citizen. He was even able to successfully campaign with stopping corruption which is kind o

It's ironic that Vance and Co were bragging about "no more stupid rules of engagement" but then they effectively do the very same thing by not allowing boots on the ground for political reason.

It's not like the US did massive world wide power projection (capabilities) out of altruism. It's a necessity to project their political and economic demands. If the US citizen think being a super power is to expensive, that'

It's not only about reputation. Trump has been so obvious in his doing that the western world has started to define a new world order without the US in its center.

Palestinians crossed a border to murder and kidnap people. What would the USA do if 5.000 Mexicans, many of them on an official mission by the Mexican government, would come to the US and murder a thousand US citizen and kidnap 250 of them?

That's possible, but isn't a counter argument to my point - not sure if it was intended as one though. For the people in the southern levante to live in peace, Hamas must be overcome as well as Netanjahu and his clique.

They have always been capable of doing that and yet there are 20% Arabic citizen in Israel and roughly 2 million in Gaza. Before Hamas' mass murdering, there were no signs that Israel intends to mass murder Palestinians (they do of cou

Stating that most Palestinian support the Hamas and their actions is a very big accusation, but your have not provided much evidence for that. I have read some poll results from years ago and don't have deeper knowledge of the topic, j

Hamas has been the government in Gaza for the last years, so I'm not sure what you want to say by stating the mass murdering by Hamas is a police problem.

What do people think Hamas would do if Israel was defenseless? I find the level of denial disturbing. It's not like Hamas has always ruled over Gaza, they stayed in power by force. Why do people struggle to acknowledge political elites

Hamas' mass murdering isn't a "police problem" whatever that's meant to mean and they are quite explicit in their goal of genocide of the Jewish population in the southern levante.

That's true in a general sense, not true in every specific sense. Before the mass murdering on Oct 2023, Israel didn't fight in the sense of an open conflict/war for a time. It tried to normalize relationships with Arabic cou
