Let me translate what Bibi is saying


?s=21

“Look, I hate Biden as much as you do but I can’t trash the fucker because in a week and a half you are going to get your ass handed to you on a platter. After that I’m going to have to kiss Biden’s ass so I’m just going to play it neutral for now. But thanks for four years of being a total wimp and giving me what I wanted so you would think I see you as a big shot.”

....the "third rail in American politics". Fucking Trump let fucking Bibi annex the Golan Heights without paying any penalty. I really hope that this aspect of American foreign policy changes dramatically next year.

Bibi aside, Israel's and our interests coincide when it comes to the planet's believer wars. Trump gets absolutely no credit for anything he "gives" Israel. We have fortified that state against the Muslim world, and we're with them because we put them there after WWII.

I don't agree with its racist constitution and don't support zionism, but it's a fact that both parties have helped allies survive. And this one is particularly strong in current and future cyberwars.

Whatever they are, they state explicitly that black lives don't matter in Israel.

as an uncodified constitution, like the UK, Canada, and a few other nations. In Israel, it is based on legal precedents and the Basic Laws, which were written, or codified, with the intention of being incorporated into an eventual written constitution.

So, they do not have a formally written constitution, but they do have a set of laws that function legally like a constitution on which the Israeli Supreme Court bases its rulings.

But I think you probably know that already.

It is accurate to say that Israel has no formally written constitution. But it is not entirely accurate to say that Israel has no constitution at all.

....our intel communities work closely among other things, but to say they're a difficult ally is an understatement. Like a mini France in that regard. Then again, we don't give France bajillions of taxpayer dollars every year. That part of our relationship most definitely needs to be reassessed. Israel is more than capable of standing on its own two feet. It doesn't need the help of American taxpayers.

No way can this country survive that and still be able to provision the resources, strength and prestige that they've become accustomed to.
