[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]America is done.

The obituary has been written.

Israel the parasite, can eat what’s left and then it’s done as well. [/quote]

Gaza doesn’t even make a top ten list of what Americans care about. Most Americans would prefer to put a box over Israelis and Palestinians and never think of them again. Neither side seems interested in any kind of peace or a sustainable two state solution. Besides the importance of Jerusalem to various religions, the area is strategically meaningless to the modern world.

The attack on Hamas’ political leaders in Doha doesn’t change much for the US. A little noise, but it won’t impact our relations with Qatar, where we have a major base. Nor will it affect our relations with other countries in the Gulf. Everyone in that neighborhood hates and fears Iran first and foremost. And Hamas is effectively a proxy for Iran. Because as always, Palestinians tend to make the dumbest decisions possible.

However, Netanyahu’s decision to do this will likely lead to the execution of some of the remaining living hostages. And there will be tremendous blowback when that happens against the government from the many, many Israelis that think Netanyahu is a corrupt psychopath.

But Israel has a parliamentary system. And this government depends on keeping the far right orthodox settler parties happy. And the attack on Doha makes the nutcases happy.

So in the end. No change for the US, which is what we care about. And Israelis and Palestinians will continue with their atrocities. If there was a good side here, people would care more. But there isn’t one. Palestinians need to get rid of Hamas. And Israelis need to get rid of Likud and the orthodox fanatics.

Until that happens, put a wall around them. And that is where 80 percent of Americans are today. [/quote]
