Israel and Hezbollah have been exchanging rocket fire, and Israel is talking about a ground invasion.
Hezbollah has a defense treaty with Iran, Iraq, Russia, and another ME country I’m blanking on.
If Israel invaded Lebanon in an attack on Hezbollah, that draws in Russia, and likely NK.
Israel and Russia are the two countries invading others that I believe are the primary drivers towards WW3. NK is just a long for the ride until/unless they launch an attack on SK.
But I think before that happens, we’ll solidly be in WW3. I think NK is onboard now, with the promise to be backed against SK later. No one is attack NK unless NK starts some shit, they don’t need a defense treaty.
AIPAC and Israel aren’t on either party’s side.
If they get both pro-Israel candidates to win their primary, they give zero shits who wins the general.
They don’t have the Dem party’s best interest at heart, and it’s fucking sickening our party leadership is fine with a foreign country influencing our elections at a fundamental level (who the general candidates are) just because the party leadership take the dirty money too.
I’m never voting for anyone that takes AIPAC money, I don’t care if it’s president or dog catcher. If they want my vote they can’t take money from a foreign government especially when that government is openly committing a genocide and the people taking the money deny it.
If we don’t have standards, we’re just as bad as Republicans taking Russian money funneled thru the NRA.
