Congress is preparing to give Israel unprecedented privileges via the 2027 National Defense Authorization Act. Section 219 of the draft NDAA directs the secretary of defense to expand integration of the U.S. and Israeli military sectors. If Section 219 becomes law, U.S. and Israeli militaries will be joined at the hip.

How much longer until Isreal can just start drafting Americans citizens to fight and die for it in some holy war genocide?

    they accepted bribes and sold the nation to an apartment theocracy.

    Don’t worry: the people won’t do anything about it.

          At some point the public being some of the most passive cowards on the planet need to be blamed.

          Oh look, we have pedo nazis now with masked gangs kidnapping neighbours, we can vote extra hard next time.

          Most democracies would have toppled the government with protests already. It is fascinating how much the American public can take.

            Would they though? A lot of so-called democracies are turning more and more right-wing since they’re in a similar situation with far-right parties dragging “the center” towards the right and actual left-wing parties made mostly irrelevant due to the influence of the rich. Trump and gang have the subtlety of a hydrogen bomb, but that doesn’t mean other countries aren’t also suffering from rampant corruption just because the politicians have more decorum.

            At some point the people not in charge need to be blamed -Signed by wealthy people in charge.

            Oh look, the American people are deceived by liars. It is not the propagandist fautl though!

            Democracy!? What you see sir are the window decorations.
