“ Everybody wins.”
Except the Israelis. They’re abandoned while completely surrounded by a bunch of 7th century barbarians who are commanded by that filthy pedophile they worship to murder every Jew on the planet.
And you would have us be complicit in that.
But let us suppose your fever dream comes to pass. We leave Israel alone to face unrelenting attacks by barbarians. At some point Israel chooses the Samson Option and the ME goes up in balls of nuclear fire.
Hard pass.

But let us suppose your fever dream comes to pass. We leave Israel alone to face unrelenting attacks by barbarians. At some point Israel chooses the Samson Option and the ME goes up in balls of nuclear fire. So we're just supposed to be nuclear blackmailed into supporting religious fanatics and their enthnostate forever?
Hard pass.
If there was ever a case for the U.S. to launch a first strike nuclear attack, you just presented it.
I acknowledge your devotion to Israel and your fidelity to our obligation we owe to Israel because of our long-standing legal and historical commitments. I share that sense that we owe Israel.
It is sad that such righteous sense of commitment does not extend to Ukraine. Indeed, it is Ukraine, but not Israel under my proposal, that has been "abandoned." Our commitment to Ukraine by word, deed and legal writ is very real too.
The idea that we abandon Israel when we embrace them, grant them citizenship and welcome them into our land as partners is absurd. To call that an abandonment is to say that our commitment to Israel extends not to the people but to the real estate.
The survival of the real estate may be important to Zionists, but it is not a moral imperative of the United States nor is it in our national interest when the risk can be averted at no cost to the lives of the Israelis.
