you really need to go back and look at the history of post WWII. How that cookie crumbled has set the world stage for where it is today. Israel is part of a long term geopolitical chess game that hasn't fully played out yet.
What’s the endgame?
You know how abused children grow up and often repeat their trauma on children, grandchildren, etc? That's Israel. The never again mental mentality means the state of Israel is literally repeating everything that happened to 1930s and 40s Jews. I'm waiting for IDF to start building large incinerators in northern gaza. And it's not hyperbole or exaggeration. Just look at the slow steady push of Gazans to the south and the destruction and deaths.
for the US to have a vassal state in the middle east.
OK never mind we are in agreement
that's a weird statement. i never saw your question as an argument for or against anything, nor did i see my replies as such either.
"that's just the way it is" is a complicated issue. it's okay to talk about things without taking sides.
With the phrasing I used I can understand how it would come off that way.
It was meant as more of a “oh never mind I understand.” as well as the fact that I agree with you
