What's for sure is that the last thing everyone needs is a nuclear exchange with the US, starting with the US, because make no mistake, russians have slightly more nukes than the US, and china has nukes too, and nobody has an anti nuke shield And a nuclear exchange is a possible end result of the whole mid east mess, unintended consequences Israelis have nukes If they start fucking with iran at this point, iran will likely return fire, israel will likely start to shit its pants and threaten to shoot back with nuclear arsenal. From that point either they go for it or the us go for it for them. From that point, regardless of who fired the shit, china and russia will likely be unable to remain outside of the conflict and that's when shit slides into batshit insane territory To avoid risking such escalation, drop the mid east entirely, if they want to genocide each others it's their problem What great "firends" do we have over there? "Best allies" aside? Totalitarian islamic regimes. The world would be a much better place if they weren't empowered by petrodollars and shielded by america no matter what they do, in the first place If israel didn't have the US to back them no matter what they would be much nicer with everybody overthere, the more you give them the more they act like spoiled bratts Same for the saudis and the petro monarchies and turkey and whatever else over there Let them go full medieval, turn a blind eye and let them murder their way to the top of their shithole if they like that so much What do we win by empowering ANY of them? They backstab us by sucking china's dick behind the scene https://www.military.com/defensetech/2013/12/24/report-israel-passes-u-s-military-technology-to-china http://ariwatch.com/OurAlly/IsraelsTechnologyTransferToChina.htm We win nothing by empowering islam or judaism or chicomism, worse, it spells doom for us, literal doom as in doomsday China wants to do mid east cop? Yes, yes, go, go waste all you have over there, it's an unsortable mess
