We had strategic interests in that until 1991. Since then, it's just habit.

In exchange Israel is given licence to perform colonial displacement and murder of the native peoples. It's a symbiotic relationship. I wouldn't be surprised if the attacks on Iran didn't originate with Trump but were requested.
Being anti-colonial is equated as be antisemitic, but that only holds true if you respect peoples religious beliefs, which I don't. I don't believe in their Imaginary Friend any more than I believe in the Muslims Imaginary friend or the Christan's or whatever flavour they want to put on it, no more than I believe in my own God Eris, exactly as she commanded.
So Instead I see a Colonial nation saying to the western world "you all got your turn now its mine". There are mitigating factors, there are neighbours who want to wipe out Israel (that their government actively encourages and ensures will continue indefinitely), but the bottom line is we have a colonial power expanding its borders in a land grab, destabilizing its neighbours on purpose, and goaded on by the all the previous colonial powers that prop it up in the western nations support, weapons and diplomatic leverage, worst of all being the United states.
That's come back to bite them though, listening to Netanyahu has led to the objective most humiliating strategic military failure the US has experienced in recent history, maybe ever. Vietnam, Iraq, Afganistan you can argue the US got something out of it, but this was something baffling to watch unfold.
Before the attacks Iran didn't control the Gulf of Hormuz, it does now, Trump even tweeted day before yesterday calling it "The Gulf of Iran" imagine that. Trump is often lauded for calling-it-as-it is.
The Gulf of Iran. It wasn't before. It is now.
Maybe, just maybe, this will give the US pause to its horrific foreign policy (and I don't just mean under Republicans) that it has pushed since world war two. Maybe Congress might end these STUPID executive orders at least for military power and centralise that with themselves again.
But for now I am enjoying this, its hilarious to see the this backfire so dramatically.

Last post by Abbot Mythos - April 20, 2026, 11:41:18 AMThat video has become extremely popular. And, its choruses of "Making Israel great again," and "They ordered you to die for Israel," caught my attention.
Now, I admit, I'm uncertain how the majority of European governments, and their citizens are currently reacting to public criticism of Israel. But, in 'Merica, with the exception of our Senator Bernie Sanders, I can't think of anyone who dares to hint that they're unenthusiastic about giving less than their unconditional support to Israel, without being labeled "Antisemitic" with a big capital "A," or worse. However, if their public criticism is very carefully worded, it just might be remotely possible for a well-respected public figure to get away with criticizing Benjamin Netanyahu. After all, the International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued a warrant for his arrest for allegedly committing war crimes, and crimes against humanity, in the Gaza Strip. But, I wouldn't count on even that being acceptable in today's 'Merica.
So, in what I once believed was "The land of the free, and the home of the brave," I find it ironic that this video is popular for criticism an ordinary 'Merican could not publicly utter without the probability of facing serious consequences.

I think I know the answer to this one.
