    Where did i say that. I said Hamas defeated Israel, Trump saved them.

    You just like arguing, I see.

    Edit: all I did was caveat that the imperialists standing in the world was fast dropping also because Israel was BOTH 1) getting its ass handed to it by Hamas 2) making itself and its backers look like genocidal maniacs and that would impact its pivot against bigger rivals. Both were caused by Hamas winning. Idgaf about Trump or any western politician and am not crediting them with shit so we are very clear.

    I also wanted to point out that even israels gains might be precarious in the long run, whether whatever limited gains they got in lebanon or the massive land chunks in syria. I can’t tell the future so I could be wrong.

      There’s no proof that Trump necessarily “saved” them and, either way, it would’ve happened regardless of the administration (the ongoing ceasefire deal, at the very least). I really do not get why Trump is somehow singled out here. His imperialist foreign policy is about the same as a Democrat’s. He’s not even “pro-Russia” or “anti-Ukraine war” like some of his fanbase seems to think; he’s already threatening more harsh sanctions and economic warfare against the Russian Federation.

      Alright, well, to be fair, I think we’re sort-of arguing the same thing, give or take a few differences here and there, so I’ll just drop it.

        All good man.

        And yes, you are absolutely correct on his russia policy as well. Anti-russian policies were in place during trumps first term also. He isnt some antiwar dove. They are all war mongering trash.

          Right. Sorry I was so harsh at first. I just don’t see him as a “dove” like his fans seem to think he is. Hell, I’ll be honest, his belligerence against Canada, Mexico, Greenland (Denmark), and Panama is taking things even further (and more then likely, the Dems will emulate him).

          Edit: Of course, Dems will one-up that in their own way, given their next turn, whenever that happens…
