Remind me again.......why are we, the usa, this guys ally? Because everything I see is just a facist, trying to protect his own political career at the cost of human lives that mean nothing to him.

How is this guy ANY different than putin? How can the USA say one guy is wrong, but the other guy is our our ally?

Just to be clear, I'm not defending putin. I'm not saying he's right either. I'm saying putin is a piece of shit, and so is israel's leadership.

And also just to be clear, I don't hate Jewish people, so lets not even try that victim card.

They use the money they get from the US to buy weapons from the US. They serve the purpose of enriching the billionaire class.

Guilt over WWII, plus lots of Apocalyptic Christians in the US see Israel as a very key step to the end days and thus going to heaven, so punishing Israel would slow the apocalypse

Guilt over WWII,

Please.

They help us maintain the resource extraction we perform throughout West Asia. Everything else doesn't matter. That's why we sent 39 F-35s (the most advanced fighter plane in the world) to Israel and a handful of F-16s (an aircraft we've basically retired) to Ukraine

Because unlike Russia, Isreal buys billions of dollars worth of military shit from the US. That is the reason. Greed.

Putin doesn't seem to be targeting children.

This guy is significantly worse than Putin, which is quite extraordinary.

Putin is not only targeting children, he's targeted childrens hospitals several times including one with the roof painted "Children inside"
