Exactly. Like sending Israel $4,000,000,000/year of US taxpayer debt to finance apartheid concentration camps. It has gone from unthinkable to standard operating procedure.
I appreciate that you mentioned the money spent is "taxpayer debt." It isn't money. We have no money. Technically, we are the poorest nation on the planet. $36 trillion poor.
We're in the middle of the death of the dollar. We've been warned about it for years, and now it's happening. I think that everything Trump is doing is to stave off collapse.
It's not completely hopeless yet. Slash military spending levels, reform SS and Medicare, slash welfare spending and eliminate 90% of the Federal Government and send it back to the States would be a good start, show the world that the USA is serious about its financial situation and we might be able to see some recovery and reductions in debt. Is Trump willing to do this? Maybe? Congress. Not a chance. Too many idiot doofusses like AOC who have no clue how money works.
Think about USAID, the international welfare program for deviants. The USтАЩs attempt to make the world dependent on our welfare. You want all the programs cut, how will that affect the unemployment rate? The Feds have succeeded in making the working class dependent on them, so what happens when they are cut loose. This is going to be painful. 2026 looms near already.
I think we are witnessing a clever "new facade", where the worst (and least beneficial to both the masses, and the elites) excesses of the Democrats like wokeism, green energy, and open borders are curbed, but the parasitic losses sustained by middle America to make the rich and powerful more-so continue.
After all, an America with a little more order should do better, and all this benefit can be scooped up by big tech, big money, big pharma (even if some of the elites prefer to enrich themselves by impoverishing the masses, because others prefer to enrich themselves by giving the masses illusion we are all together).
The US doesn't send more money to Isreal than any other nation in the world, nor did the US and Allies create Isreal, to protect Jews, protect the Christian Holy Lands, make amends for the holocaust, or anything else. The US sends money to Isreal to maintain a heavily nuclear armed outpost for the US within striking distance of the entire Middle East.
It's same reason we are sending hundreds of billions to Ukraine and the reason we screwed up the Balkans and left them with a Gaza-type situation to clean up in our wake in the 1990s. It has nothing to do with religion (by the way, there are more Neo-Nazis than Jews in both those places). Muslims wanted an outpost in the West from which their weapons could strike Western Europe and Serbia was ready to provide it. Europe has no defense other than NATO, and therefore we were the last line of defense to stop Muslims from creating their own "Isreal" in Europe.
If those who look at everything through a "Stop the Zionists" lense could take a peek around their lense, they might think critically about all the ways the US having it's very own outpost right next door to Isreal would change many dynamics of the complicated relationship between the US and our "closest ally" Isreal. For starters, we wouldn't need to send them $4 trillion and most of our tech every year.
There is confluence of interest between Zionism and Imperialism for sure.
That said, please tell us, which nation (other than "aid" to "Ukraine", most of which is used to fund US entities, and some of that buys arms that go to Ukraine for a US-sponsored proxy war) gets more aid than Israel?
Israel has received the largest share of U.S. aid every year or almost every year since it was formed. Number 2 changes but Egypt is generally 2 or 3. I donтАЩt know the reason for certain, but perhaps to assure the free access to the Suez Canal. Maybe we pay them to keep the peace with Israel. I donтАЩt know, but IтАЩve always thought it was curious.
I usually ignore replies not intended to start thoughtful dialogue, but there are so many dogs and tails in this story, I am genuinely interested in your perspective.
Would it be correct to understand your reply to say Zionists were so powerful throughout the world before and after WWII that they were able to cause the Allies to take Palestine, create Israel, relocate the Jews in diaspora, and then pay the sums weтАЩve been paying to defend it for 75 years without American self-interest?
And things that sound gasp-worthy and pearl-clutchingly audacious at first end up being normalized later... for better or worse.

BRICS will pull the pin on the fiat US$ one day.

You're pretty optimistic this week!

You are confused as to which is the dog and which is the tail.

Yes. They are named Rothschild and they have run world banking since well before Napoleon.
But it is far more complex than just plain-Jane Zionists. For example, the Vatican were/are in on it too.
Thanks for the reply
Everyone in PhilтАЩs life is an enemy.
Phil is simply nuts and a Marxist shill.
No he nailed it.
This is nothing but a modern take on the crusades of old.
