  1. That's exactly the problem. Israel has had their boots on the necks of Palestinians for generations and the US have gladly acquiesced and provided cover for their crimes. How many enemies did the US have in the Middle East before Israel was founded?

  2.  @bargendler7528  Iran? Turkey? Saudi? Didn't the Arabs fight on the side of Britain and France during both world wars? I'll give you that it's not the only reason, but it's certainly the largest. By propping up vicious dictatorships in the Middle East who are doing the bidding of the US instead of their people's will - which is support for Palestinian independence - the US has created the grounds for continued hostility. Iran is a perfect example: The US overthrew a democratic government. They then went from a premier dictatorship and ally and became an anti-American regime. The same would happen everywhere because people have become more extreme, not less, because of the US and their "carte blanche" support for Israeli crimes. The people in charge of the US government have no fucking clue what they're doing. It's a gunshop full of toddlers.

  3. They're not trying to end the crisis! Instead the US is trying to minimise the diplomatic and political isolation by expanding their campaign and instilling a sense of existential fear into the population of the US and Europe to manufacture a cause for war. The "wars" would end tomorrow if the US ended military and diplomatic support for Israel and allowed the international community to seek a solution. This is the twilight, a desperate hail mary, of the American hegemonic system since the 1990s. And it needs to go, as it has been a disaster.

  4. Well, the POTUS is in fact a "monarch" now if you'd asked James Madison. When was the last time Congress was convened to declare war before a US invasion or bombing campaign against a sovereign nation? Just an opinion from Denmark.
