    He’s doing Nixon 68 and Reagan 80 all over again.

    Established Republican foreign policy playbook

    Netanyahu playing along as he always has. Only confirms he is on the Putin, Xi, Trump side of the line.

      It’s 2016 all over again too. And if anyone thinks Israel won’t covertly attack their “closest ally” to undermine its democracy, all I have to say is LOL.

        You mean attack them again, right? Israel has already directly attacked the US during the Six-Day War, bombing the USS Liberty which was watching events off the coast of Gaza. They jammed the Liberty’s calls for help, and the US Secretary of Defense even went so far as to call off the jets sent to defend the Liberty, leaving the US sailors to die. The president covered it up, keeping the story out of the papers so the American people wouldn’t be outraged.

        The Israeli government will absolutely do whatever it takes to make sure their interests are served, and anyone who gets in their way will die.
