      Interesting that it’s Israel breaking it though rather than the US. If the US wants the strait open but Israel doesn’t care, where does that leave them?

        The US provides Israel with all of their weapons, gives them billions in cash, and provides defense for them. The US can just take all of that away and Israel would crumble instantly. They have cards to play to reign in Israel but they choose not to use them.

        Not very surprising, though.

        They already said that they didn’t approve of this latest agreement.

            They’ve been non stop “ceasefiring” on Lebanon Hezbollah until Hezbollah retaliated and immediately Israel cried the terrorists are attacking! They broke the ceasefire! We are victims in all this. I believed that’s when israel tried to put boots on the ground and the squad or whatever got fucked up. This shits been going for so long it all blurs together. Sorry if I got the events wrong.

            Or for anyone really. Anyone in a position of strength that is. That’s the art of the deal, try to bully the weak or bend over otherwise.

        Israel is not really an independent country from the US. Israel is just an unofficial American territory.

      It’s interesting that they made demands from a party that was not in the negotiations or who did not sign the agreement. And everyone thinks this is somehow valid.

        It’s perfectly valid. The US can easily say that Israel doesn’t get the weapons it relies on if they don’t do what they’re told. If they don’t have these weapons then they’re probably fucked because of how many enemies they’ve made. They don’t have a choice but to listen to an America that is willing to say no. Is that what we have though? I don’t think so, but maybe.

        It’s would almost be interesting that you think you have a point, but it’s really just pathetic

        Israel is an American colony. Traditionally, colonial masters are responsible for the actions of their possessions.
