Perhaps I misspoke. I mean to say that the periodic flare-ups with the Palestinians are not that important anymore. They used to be. But nowadays, Israel's neighbours aren't invading with tanks and, as I said, the overall trend is towards peace and economic integration with Israel. I agree with you that Israel is important to the US for many good strategic and political reasons.

Iran literally just sent drones into Israel. You haven't been paying attention.

I've been paying attention to the Middle East for almost 40 years, punk. What? Iran, like, literally just sent drones into Israel? Oh no, literally what will we do? Like, oh my god, this is so terrible.

You can't take and hold territory with drones, especially not Iranian drones. Iran is not invading Israel. Grow up and go learn something.

Iran might not be invading Israel anytime soon but they sure arent "trending towards peace" like you claim. You're wrong about this one, and your anger betrays you here. It might shock you to learn that even at your age, you can still learn something, too. At least I know I'm uninformed and look for the truth instead of just spouting off bullshit with nothing to back it up.
