Always remember - Gaza is US genocide

The US Empire, owned by the extremely wealthy, has big plans for Gaza, provided the Palestinians are gone. The Ben Gurion Canal Project, dug straight through Gaza, and access to the Gaza Coast oil & gas fields. They just need to, ya know, ask the present and permanent owners to move along…

Yep. Not much chatter about that canal project for some reason… That US embassy they have been building in Lebanon is 43 acres, the second largest in the world after Baghdad.

Very good analysis... makes sense in the ever increasing insanity.

If you remember, there were reports that Biden and Netanyahu weren't getting along with each other. And yet, Biden was continuing to support Israel. Same thing with Trump. This is likely just talk because most Americans support a ceasefire and a lot of the MAGA crowd has turned on Israel, so Trump is just trying to get them back on side. Unless he actually does something like cut off aid to Israel, there's no reason to take this seriously.

Look: No head of state likes dealing with Netanyahu. But they all love that jew money! It gets thrown around by the pitchfork! And it goes a looong way towards meeting with Netanyahu bearable.

We'll know it's real as soon as military aid to Israel is cut off, AIPAC is required to register as a foreign lobbyist, and all those with Israeli citizenship are expelled from the government.

That sure would be something. Hard to believe that will ever happen but yeah…

Trump wants to win a Hollywood Oscar award for his acting as a ‘Patriotic’ President while spending his time on foreign policy adventures and economic warfare against China.

He’s eager to throw his MAGA cult followers and middle America under the bus as long as he becomes the crypto Bitcoin King while ‘promising’ tax cuts for the little guy.

This is a shell game by the greatest con man in the country, cooked up between him and Mossad. Trump and Netanyahu are inveterate liars. They are both reading from a script and repeating their lines like good little jew-bots. Sit and think for a minute about all the ways this can go wrong - and there are many, many, too many movable parts. This isn’t going to happen.

Thank you Dissident for trying to stop us taking dream for reality.

Yet it is too early to call the shots. It is clear something is brewing and the mere fact you write about it is a confirmation.

There are some important factors, however, that you don’t take into consideration. The possibility of the US trying to cut a deal with Saudis to undermine the effects of the Iran/Saudi Arabia deal brokered by Beijing in 2022 is one of them. Maybe more importantly the deal in discussion with Iran is another. And, at the end, the several Trump real estate deals in the region (like the ‘international golf and villas’ one Eric Trump is cutting in Doha) is also essential for this kleptocratic mob.

I will wait a few days to agree with you that all this talk is just a smokescreen. But i already agree that the US dropping Satanyahu will not mean the end of the plight of the Palestinian people.

Meanwhile, the apocalypse continues in Palestine and each day that passes is asking that we increase our concrete solidarity.

I agree - all news for the plebs and armchair analysts to throw them off the scent.

Nothing changes.

KSA's official statements at the ICJ hearings clearly indicate that no rapprochement with Israel is forthcoming, regardless of Trump's blustering. China and Russia have KSA's ear.

Good grief, nothing has changed with the Orange Rabbi. Who could ever so naively think that and why guess about what comes next?

Does no one recall the Orange Rabbi sitting right there next to Netanyahu in the White House and saying America will buy Gaza, turn it into one big capitalist real estate development and oceanside resort, and find a new place for Gazans to live?????

For fucks sake, the guy has never walked that back, NOT ONCE.

You don't say shit like that without meaning it, without having a real plan, without doing everything humanly and sub-humanly possible to make it happen so help you god on your mother's grave.

There is no nuance in that statement, no parsed words of intent, only the clearest most salient statement of done-deal forever set in stone that anyone could possibly speak.

What else would an Orange Rabbi do?

It isn’t ‘real.’

‘The real’ includes long-term US designs to dismantle the Russian Federation/China/Iran troika.

‘The real’ includes the Israeli ruling class designs to become the controlling, West Asia power.

US designs require the elimination of the West Bank and the Strip as a basis from which opposition to US action against Iran can be initiated.

Israeli designs require massive, ongoing supply of war machines and military matériels.

The intersection of disparate interests result in the US and eretz Ysra’el supporting ongoing conflict, each for their own, reprobate reasons.

When Zionism ceases to serve the US ruling class, the Israeli regime will be dropped like a hot potato.

US action against Iran? 🤣 Not gonna happen. Iran can irradiate tiny Israel any day of the week without nuclear warheads and neither USA nor Israel could prevent it.

I don’t contest your assessment. The thing is, the ruling class in the US is so unhinged, we can’t count on it being dissuaded from this course anyway.

The US ruling class is at an end. It is terrified, unwilling to relent, and feels it has nothing to lose.

Sharp analysis. But in the end, the only thing that's not "bogus" is what actually turns out to be the case. None of us (and maybe literally nobody, including the central players) knows yet what's going to happen for sure.
