Just tired of America being involved in “foreign entanglements”.

We have our own issues at home.

If Israel thinks it needs the US to win in a war they shouldn’t go to war.

Sure Oct. 7 was horrific but perhaps they should have done a few Eichmann ops and sent their message.

Uncle Sugar is tapped out on money and war.

Stop funding Ukraine and free cheese in the Blue cities...

And we could throw a few shekels to Israel to help us protect oil.

If the Middle East grew carrots... we would not give a shit.

I quoted that from a great general.

PS. Paraphrased. Sir Anthony would not have said "Shit" in a quote.

I'm in agreement with most of what you stated.
Reality is Israel has been a pseudo American state since its creation, with the US being its biggest supported and financier, actually welfare state would be better description.
With last nights raid on Iran, Israel took out a lot of targets in Iran and on the way there in other countries. Something the US can't presently do because US has no justifiable reason to do so.
Now, will Israel's raid help/contribute to the downfall of present leadership in Iran? A leadership many would like to see come to an end.
If said leadership comes to an end, who/what replaces it? The unknown devil vs the devil we know. Interesting times.

I met the real Charlie Wilson in his office in 1992. While lobbying for Space Station. As with everyting else, he said yes. Also had to deal with Jack Brooks who was a flaming corrupt SOB... who yelled at me and some others on Houston TV. But Charlie Wilson was a gentleman who loved NASA. He had a Stinger tube hanging over his office door. I had no idea... Nor did anyone else in America except for a few folks out at the Highway Department off GWP in Virginia.

This is an incredibly prescient bit of film making. That happened after the fact. So not prescient. Just sends a very clear message about the laws of unintended consequences. The fact that it is fact makes it prescient... but only to the late Charlie Wilson... legend.

Folks should have listened to Charlie Wilson when he wanted a few million for the schools....

But what do I know... I was in marketing. Even after NASA.

doing the same thing over and over is the first sign of insanity. when you know what the problem is, you know how to fix it. how did someone elses problem become merica's problem? maybe a lot of time on the knees in the oval office, and i doubt clinton was the first to have someone on their knees for merican $$$
