Sounds like a plausible argument. Supporting genocide to prove they’re more powerful than China.

The article makes some valid points but the headline implies a much greater risk in Gaza than actually exists. I think that’s part of the calculus here—the risk of overly muscular foreign policy here is quite low to US elites.
