Were there not an Israel the USA would have to invent an Israel to protect her interest in the region.

  • Biggest AIPAC recipient who earned the nickname Genocide Joe and took all his orders directly from Tel Aviv like a spineless sack of sand.

In hindsight it's very obvious why Biden said that but people still refuse to see the obvious truth.

Yet, they still manage to have concern for Uyghurs, who they didn’t know existed until imperial core propaganda started manufacturing bullshit about them.

America definitely wouldn't be doing it this brazenly without AIPAC. In all their previous genocides they fought for a major objective and managed to keep their propaganda alive.

Now it's all falling apart for a miniscule landgrab for a settler colony while not lending the weapons to Israel but giving it all for free.

See Ukraine as an example for what realpolitik looks like. Gaza is not it.

USA is an interesting empire. Will be studied for millenia. Thinking 100 or 150 more years left. Could be shorter we'll see. Probably just turn into an ex super power, with little South American skirmishes everywhere....wait

Thr USA killed way way way more than 10 million native americans. We will never know the true scale of the genecide because the majority of it was done through disease. Early settlers would deliberately trade goods contaminated with several european diseases that the natives had little or no resistance to, including small pox and several others I can't remember off the top of my head. Explorers moving west described "virgin" country untouched by man, beautiful and bountiful, but they were wrong. What they saw was an environment shaped over thousands of years by humans for humans that once supported hundreds of millions of native americans, who were mostly dead by the time european explorers got there. The genecide everyone knows about was really just the end, picking off the stragglers. That was bad enough that it's whitewashed in public schooling, but they don't even teach the history of the biological warfare that did the vast majority of the work. In many ways the americas still bear the gaping wounds of european contact today. This place is built on a foundation genocide.

Truly, no one would ever fathom Europeans committing genocide.

Guy with a bloody knife standing at the end of a long line of muslims lying on the ground with stabwounds in their stomach, pointing to a normal guy who was shitty to his neighbours 60 years ago: "That guy over there is stabbing a Muslim to death! I saw it! I don't have any pictures or any proof, but I saw it! Don't believe me? Ask my employee NaziGuy McCommieHater!"
