    There is a very real chance that Biden’s unquestioning support of Israel will lead to WW3.

    Bibi knows whatever happens, Biden will always have his back. He can’t get that loyalty from any other US president, he’s counting on every other country recognizing that, but with the way Israel is acting they all assume Israel won’t stop with their current victims.

    It’s stand together now, or watch each other fall slowly.

      WW3? I highly doubt it. More just a continuation of the proxy wars from the Cold War.

      But yes I agree the continued support is idiotic to say the least. BUT it’s not just Biden, the felonious cheetoh said he’d support Israel too. The only criticism I can find from him is that Israel shouldn’t be broadcasting all these images of war because its “Bad PR”:

      “I don’t know why they released wartime shots like that. I guess it makes them look tough. But to me, it doesn’t make them look tough,” Trump continued. “They’re losing the PR war. They’re losing it big. But they’ve got to finish what they started, and they’ve got to finish it fast, and we have to get on with life.” https://www.politico.com/news/2024/04/04/trump-israel-gaza-war-00150577

      Its a lose/lose scenario with Israel imo; Bibi is literally Hitler 2.0, and honestly the only way to deal with fascist, nazi fucks like him and Putin is to put a bullet in their head, or be prepared to watch the human toll to be paid by their neighbors and citizens.

        This isn’t happening in a vacuum.

        Hezbollah and Russia have a defense treaty with some others like Iraq and Iran. Russia and NK just signed one.

        Russia is losing in Ukraine, and none of the countries next to Israel can stand against a US backed Israel.

        WW2 was because some minor dude got shot and treaties pulled everyone in. What’s going on now could definitely make WW3 pop off, it doesn’t take much historically

        By “stand together,” OP means “stand together while we watch them march the trans people into concentration camps and this war happens regardless after Trump wins because we refuse to vote for Biden.”

        You can stick your head in sand at the beach, but with climate change the tides may be unpredictable.

        But I thought when I typed this:

        It’s stand together now, or watch each other fall slowly

        I thought it was clear I was talking about the countries unfortunate enough to share a border with a country ruled by a power hungry madman actively invading other countries.

        With the way this is splitting, both sides are going to have at least one.

        Geopolitically speaking, there’s no “good side” which I guess history is like when you’re unfortunate enough to live thru it.
