The US sees the existence of Israel as strategically important. The constant flow of weapons and other resources into it is clear evidence of this (if the words of it's leaders somehow wasn't).
Before the US it was the UK and for a time even Nazi Germany, albeit before Israel formally existed.
If the US knew that Israel could fill it's strategic role without further investment it would transfer those resources to another project. That's ample evidence that Israel requires these resources.
The US didn't create a state governed and populated by radicals, but they required it.
Yes I agree with you that Israel requires these resources to continue it's militaristic course of action with the goal of extermination. If it didn't have these resources anymore, it wouldn't cease to exist. It would need to change this course if it wants to survive.
israel is for all intents and purposes, an unsinkable aircraft carrier designed to permanently destabilize the ME, there can't be any course change.
Fair point. Such a change of course would likely mean less genocide (although the existence of nuclear weapons makes this somewhat less than guaranteed).
That said, a less secure Israel might lose a large chunk of it's population and industry. Many Israelis have dual citizenships that make leaving fairly easy. Israel as we know it could very well collapse.
That's what my point was. I think there was difference in semantics between me and the lemmee user in regard to what we meant by collapse. But they tossed in the "hatred in neighbours" drivel so I decided it better to not engage faithfully.
No I agree with you both. It seems very likely that such a collapse would then start to manifest. What do you think would be the long-term result of this?
We're talking about Isn'real losing all US support?
I see the entire Zionist state dissolving slowly or getting wiped out in a regional war. Either way, they cannot exist because the region will no longer tolerate them or allow their ideological goals.
