Well you can't deny the fact of it the reason is really is launching its own little jihad year, reference intentional, is because Netanyahu desperately wants to remain in power, and he needs his ultra right wingers to hang on to his coalition government majority.

As for the American part of the equation, goddamn I hate how much money we're wasting on this will goddamn thing. But, there are almost certainly factors at play that nobody but the government knows about because they don't tell anybody anything, even if it's in the run best interests which it probably isn't in this case. Which is muddy of course by the fact that they absolutely want to maintain power over the area whether it's justifiable or not. That's just how empires are.

But having us with a great big fuck-off stick standing nearby just in case things get out of hand might be enough of a deterrent to prevent somebody kick-starting a literal nuclear war over there. And that's not something that they're just going to admit, even if it's true.

No matter what the hell is going on the government is never going to give this citizen population a complete picture of the facts. And they'll use that to justify backing Israel at all costs.

Personally, I would love it if we go over there and knock Netanyahu's teeth down his throat. Unfortunately I don't think it would make any difference. A significant percentage of the population seems to be completely on board with waging a genocide on Palestine. There are literally pulling a Nazi (check it off on your bingo card) Germany over there with literal death camps.

And none of that even delves into the proxy factor and how Russia and China are/would be over there doing other things as well. Because as we all know very well from history (that is, those of us who bothered to learn it) proxy wars and gray ops between great powers are nothing fucking new.
