None of this would be possible without the Americans.

There's a very good argument to be made that if we're talking about the Israeli occupation of Palestine, we need to say the American-Israeli occupation of Palestine, the bombing of Lebanon, we need to say it's also in America.

None of this would be physically possible, diplomatically possible, economically possible, were it not for this unconditional support

that the Israelis have gotten from the Americans for decades and decades now.

If Biden had done anything about Israel's genocide in Gaza, really almost anything, I don't think we would be where we are today.

And so, no, this is not a Trump problem.

It's just that Trump being Trump is making it much worse.

It's just exploding everything even faster, speeding it up and adding new dimensions to it and so on and so forth.

But the problem goes back to American imperialist hubris

A lot of people not knowing what they're even doing in the region and the consequences of it all.

So, yeah, I'm not someone who tends to be very pessimistic necessarily and stuff like that.

But there's a lot of ways in which what is currently happening in terms of the Israeli and American war in Iran and Israeli war in Lebanon and so on, that can just go to different levels that I...

generally and i'm someone who has report even reported on conflicts for a long time now generally struggle to even imagine and i don't want to sound like i'm just panicking or anything like that although there is there is a component of that but it is a real problem that if israel is not stopped in any way at this point this will continue and there is no objective reason to believe otherwise

Thanks.

Wait a minute, Sophia.

Did you just say he lost everything?

Hold on, Sophia.
