There were some suggestions in the past that the US’s unbridled support for Israel is harmful to the long term interests of Israel. Over the years I’ve seen less and less intelligent arguments coming from Israeli leadership, particularly in a world where smartphones can turn any citizen into a reporter.
Some days it is apparent that the wrath meted upon the Palestinians has turned into bloodlust. While I understand the grief and anger following such a massacre, there has long been a pattern of wilfully misplaced reaction against stone throwing kids and targeting of journalists and their families. These cannot be attributed to Oct 7.
Now with Israeli funds making its way back to US politics, the crazier the politician the better his chances. With time, the benevolence of the US will be questioned by their allies and make the world a less predictable place.
