While true, imagine taking tens of billions in US military and financial aid, unlimited geopolitical support, dragging the US into a war and then saying this shit out loud about your ally.

    Now imagine a population that listens to this and says ‘yup, hes got a point’ and you can understand the elections.

  • We heard him at the UN. Netanyahu very much likes to have opinions. They don’t come from data analysis or anything. He just makes them up.

    With Trump, we’re used to it, because his base reads his word salad as eleven-dimensional chess, and Trump can’t stop talking.

    With Bibi we still presume he’s a statesman because he’s in a suit and leads Israel. But the more he talks, the more we’ll realize he’s a bumbling ignoramus too.

    Also, said sumo wrestler would pulverise the scrawny little man with his bare hands. It easy to talk big if your enemies are a few thugs with guns and schoolchildren.

    The point of sumo wrestlers being fat is to have enough mass so they don’t get pushed off the ring. It’s basically an evolutionary adaptation to the constraints imposed by the sport. I don’t know if they do weight classes there but regardless the slim sumo wrestler will always lose against the fat one.

    Looking at how effective drones are against traditional tech, I don’t disagree with the assessment of the US military being enormous and wasteful.

    • Yes. We have a lot of expensive tech. We pay our soldiers a pittance. Their families are on food stamps. (SNAP, which is all digital, now.)

      Also Israel gets their weapons from the US for free, since a lot of elected officials are captured by AIPAC.

    Israel pays its soldiers in women and children they can legally rape without Israel giving a shit.

      • Also old armies got spoils. Looting. Usually temples and churches whose faith and gods you didn’t respect anyway.

        Go far enough back, and captured civilians were made slaves for life. Including making sex slaves of all the women.

    Why would they care? We need them for our Christian rapture. Everyone over here is so over the world they built they want to go to their fantasy land now, and the billionaires think they can Cesar the wasteland afterwards. Completely cooked.

      Bibi and Trump are just trying to stay out of prison. The entire world is fucked because 2 people won’t take responsibility for their crimes against humanity.

        I’m not talking about them. I’m talking about the swaths of useful idiots, including his cabinet and other powerful Americans. They want to initiate judgment day. Israelis are in it for the gravy train cause it dont stop for God’s Chosen People.

          Dude, the jews don’t believe any of that new testament shit, it’s just the arrogance of people realizing they can to anything they want because nobody can stop them.
