(Rant warning.)
Yeah. It’s impossible for me to believe that the Christian conservatives would allow “the Holy Land,” to fall into Muslim hands. Which, make no mistake is exactly what would happen if the US withdrew It’s significant support for Israel.
The Arab world would produce someone that would not just attack Israel, but likely attempt to take the land Israel sits on. That is, if multiple Muslim nations don’t team up against Israel anyway.
But the world, in general, is not pleased with the IDF.
The US might possibly benefit from Israel falling. At least, we wouldn’t be putting resources into an unsustainable Jewish state in the middle of the Muslim world.
Move anyone who will come, to Utah. New Israel. Let the ME fight over the “Holy land.” Which they ALWAYS will.
Ukraine is a different story.
Russia (under Putin,) is a huge destabilizing force in the world, and is clearly in aggressive expansion mode. The western world had a chance to get involved very early on. As tanks and Russian gear were slowly poured into Ukraine in an extremely brazen act, the world watched.
Knowing war was imminent and what effect that would have on NATO countries, IF NATO was going to probably be involved, we should have struck then.
As a combined force, when Russian hardware was stuck in miles of traffic in a VERY vulnerable/strategically stupid position we could have annihilated Russia’s entire western army. A blow they would never have recovered from. Nukes were/are a huge problem. The US would never agree to nuclear disarming. So. Neither will any other country, that intends to potentially rub other countries wrong.
So. We were always facing a nuclear problem.
Now.
First off. We should all be VERY thankful that Russia has been so ineffective, and lost SO much anyway.
Had Ukraine fell easily, there would be the a new Russian western front, on NATO doorsteps. THAT would be a MASSIVE problem.
The US took the lead, on Ukraine. It is essentially the battleground for the West vs Russian hostility. Every nation in NATO is glad the fight isn’t happening on our turf.
Bullshit aside, we are helping Ukraine, and although it is in the name of their freedom, it is in our best to stop Russia there.
☆US analysts have openly admitted to learning a great deal, by watching this war. They believe that we would have similar issues with the current battlefield. In short, we need to rethink many of our tactics, and where our money goes to somehow maintain our current global status.
Seeing priceless Russian military equipment destroyed by a exponentially cheaper and more effective drone craft.
Russia has now lost a third of their Black Sea navy, to kamikaze drone boats.
They have lost countless other expensive armored vehicles and attack aircraft, to a technology that seems limited only to the imagination of how to use first person drone technology.
Russia really stepped in it in Ukraine, and Putin knows it.
Iran may be a bigger problem, as they are essentially THE cause of the IDF vs Gaza/Hamas conflict.
They are a contributor to almost every conflict with US interest.
It has also been made clear that Iran is providing arms (mainly drones) to Russia.
I think the US would have already gotten personal with Iran, if not for watching multi-million dollar Russian tanks running from innovative $200 drones and other Wiley Coyote/A.C.M.E. inventions.
Obviously. China (it’s leaders) is a problem.
North Korea.
The list of enemies is long.
We need to probably focus on getting away with funding and arming Ukraine for as long as possible, before direct war with Russia. We cannot pose the dominant threat EVERYWHERE, as evidenced by our seeming inability to protect Red Sea shipping.
Russia cannot likely sustain the war forever. I wager Putin is waiting to see the hand he gets, when US elections shake out.
