Israel has carried out what are believed to be unilateral "preemptive strikes" on Iran in a major escalation of geopolitical trouble in the Middle East as a state of emergency was declared.
Here are the global knock-on effects of Trumpism. The world has been afraid of this for years. And mind you, it’s not because the USA is losing its grip, its role of world police. It’s because of fucked-up diplomacy dominated by egomania, backing the wrong allies in the wrong way. And being so dumb that you’re easily exploitable.
I’m sorry for once again seeing every conflict through USian eyes - Americans do that well enough by themselves - but in this case it’s just true. Fuck Trump, Fuck Netanyahu. Let’s hope this nightmare ends soon.
From the article:
A U.S. official told CNN that the United States had no involvement or assistance in the Israeli strikes
“This is a clear and present danger to Israel’s very survival. 80 years ago the Jewish people were the victims of a holocaust perpetrated by the Nazi regime. Today, the Jewish state refuses to be a victim of a nuclear holocaust, perpetrated by the Iranian regime.”
Of course they stick to that one however nonsensical it has become, considering Israel is the Nazi regime now, inflicting its own holocaust on others.
“I think it’s been excellent. We gave them a chance and they didn’t take it,” Trump told ABC on Friday morning. “They got hit hard, very hard. They got hit about as hard as you’re going to get hit. And there’s more to come, a lot more.”

From the article:
Um, sure. No involvement at all during the last 8 decades.
And Netanyahu:

This sounds very “not involved”
Can’t keep himself from bragging even as his PR people try to tone it down.
You make it sound like slavish devotion to Israel isn’t bipartisan.
Because the State department policy is bipartisan because the hegemony is bipartisan
