Is America really Israel's poodle?

Despite the lowest amount of aid currently reaching Gaza right now, apparently Israel has met the terms of the US requiring them to drastically increase the aid going in.

I wonder, what really is going on with the Biden administration in their last 2 months.

Oiy!

Anyone who thinks a :poodle: does whatever its told has clearly never had a :poodle:!

But so often the UK is described as America’s poodle for caving in far less than this, so I had to borrow the line. The humour also helps manage my disgust and disappointment that they really don’t care about the awful cruelty and loss of life - it’s not as if they even have to keep voters on board now.

I am fighting myself to not look at headers or pics that feature Trump.

America will now be putting immense power into the hands of a man with proven and demonstrated psychopathic characteristics. Using practically unlimited powers of the office to surround himself with equally odious sycophants, there will be no one left to balance the crazy.

More importantly there appears to be no one to balance the crazy killer Netanyahu.

Trump might be able to stand against him if he thinks it’s in his best interests, but he’s just as likely to hug him and write a blank cheque.

If all the Arab nations stood together, they might put the brakes on, but that’s even less likely than Trump.

IMO of course.

There’s an arrest warrant out for Netanyahu, and Gallant, I believe, today from the ICC.

As a US citizen, it is maddening and stunning and infuriating how much the admin is caving to Netanyahu. And how 47 (I do not use his name) will probably do so, even more. I truly do look forward to socking myself away in a smallish French town, getting my history and nature geek on, immersing myself in upping my French language skills, taking local classes and such, and ditching the 24/7 dumpster fire that is US politics. (Yeah, I know, I know, Europe/France has it’s own political stuff, but still…)

Excellent news but I doubt any of the other poodles will have the guts to enforce it so he’ll just continue with his murderous rampage.

Sadly I guess you’re right. The US and Israel voted against…
