The US is supporting Israel through what we can mostly all agree is a genocide of the Gazans. Clearly, Biden isn’t a genocidal maniac, yet he’s all in with unwavering support. Why are we doing this? There has to be a logical reason that isn’t just “we want Israel to kill everyone in Gaza and take their land a la lebensraum.”

We know this is an emotional topic, so please be respectful of each other so that we can have open and clear authentic discussion on the matter.

    We have other bases in the Middle East, we don’t need them for a foothold.

    We can walk in, whip our dick out and ask who wants to be our new friend and under our protection.

    Israel is ignoring us anyway so I see no harm.

    Fall in line or fuck around and find out when we allow them to be outlaws and retract our protection.

    Sends a message while we are at it.

      … there is literally no military strategist in our armed forces that agree with your assessment.

      Please don’t mistake your wikipedia education for a nuanced and in-depth understanding.

        Because they have no intention of changing anything why would they look for another way?

        They all keep getting rich off backroom deals with weapon companies
