It’s not a retreat; it’s a strategic retrograde advance!

Is this another plot element of blending the two militaries so we can funnel more money to Israel without any oversight?

Bingo

I having this feeling there is going to be an extreme backlash in this country in the next several years that would make this strategically unwise.

Look at Der Cheeto’s history as a guide for how things will play out when the bastard finally croaks. Does any of his children strike anyone as particularly bright? Baron or whatever his name is, the kid that looks like the Talking Heads song “Once in a Lifetime” is constantly looping “Well… how did I get here?” every time I see him, that one seems like a possible wild card but the others are obedient sycophants.

It feels like that poor woman shot in the face by ICE was this era’s Sumner affair with the kick off to chaos most likely happening somewhere in November but before January. How this will play out will be somewhat like when some Shia people decided to settle some scores with their Sunni neighbors. I cannot begin to explain how fucked things are when you have the equivalent of each corner in a four way intersection taking turns shooting at each other.

Your government is destroying all of the institutions necessary for it to function. So American will not be capable of functioning as a nation the way it was when the institutions worked as designed.

The damage being done to American isn’t superficial, it’s as structural as it gets. The structure of America is about the division of power and it’s safeguarding, changing that means changing how power is divided and what is safeguarded. Consolidation of power under the executive is absolute opposite of the constitutions intent. Everything will change if they succeed, and they have done so enough that some things already have. Americans will wake up one day in a nation they no longer recognize and do not know how to safely navigate. God help you against those who do.

Totally agree and things are already really bad here but the average US citizen doesn’t know it it yet - https://piefed.social/comment/11954439

My priority is getting my partner out of this mess before they get permanently deployed to one of the three country killing disasters on the horizon.

Not related or that important; I’ve been making a concerted effort to not refer to the USA as America and saying US citizens as Americans. The situation in North America kinda feels like this https://imgur.com/a/w2GWXoZ with the question being who is the survivor: Mexico or Canada?

So after Netenyahoo said he doesn’t need the us military, his plan is to simply move the US military to Israel?

There were comments that that was not from a reputable source.

Soon we’ll just be paying our taxes directly to Israel

Oh goodie, just make it easier to destroy everything by putting everything in the same place.

This is Netanyahu evaluating, not the u.s. He wants more military power so he just needs to extract from his buddy don.
