Longfellow has this line in a long poem -The Masque of Pandora. Prometheus is visited by Pandora and Hermes. Prometheus refuses. His brother falls in love when Hermes brings her to him.
Regarding Israel, you write “America is trapped.” Are we fools? Is Blinken a fool? What would happen should we stop all aid? Netanyahu clearly has no concern for Hamas’ captives, he likely wrote them off months ago. Why the hell is America promising to defend Israel? Morally, Israel is indefensible. America seems fascinated by the idea of participating in a war in the Middle East. Might as well put those women and transgender soldiers to work!
Finally a good word about Kier Starmer!: he decided “to withdraw British objections to the ICC’s efforts to issue arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Israeli Defence Minister, Yoav Gallant.”
WTF is America doing moving our Navy into position to defend Israel should it engage in a war with Iran?
I remain horrified by Western support of Ukraine in its war with Russia. We should have stayed away. I’m told that American corporations intend to get piece of Ukraine, so this may be global capitalism in action. Surely the American people, who have been funding our military support of Ukraine, will get a share of the corporate plunder.
Susan J - the problem the US has is that the Administration, no matter which Uniparty is 'in power', is always stacked full of Zionists, many of them dual nationals. Until you stop allowing a tiny minority of your country's population to dominate the most important decisions that can be taken (and as long as Zionists are in power, they will support Israel slavishly), you can't divorce Israel.
First you need to prove that AIPAC can be defeated. 150 million Americans need to refuse to vote for anyone that gets money from rich Jews, Zionists and Israeli front organisations.
If you want America to be led by leaders that put Americans first and Israeli Jews a long way down the pecking order, you need to make it clear that you can't have Zionist sockpuppets like Blinken, Sullivan, Nuland etc etc in positions that you can't vote them out of.
You should have no more than 1 in 100 senior members of the Administration being Jews. No more. When it is 40% and more in key positions, you are merely a Western colony of Imperialist Zionism.
I excerpted it from Alastair Crooke. They are his words, and they are true until some group in the power elite can think and negotiate, finagle and cheat their way out of the "trap".
The issue of the US Navy "defending" Israel is moot. they did shoot down drones and missiles in April, and they will again, at great cost to the US and depletion of valuable weapons that will take several years to re-manufacture, which is a strategic loss.
The question, and what the Israeli foreign minister was pushing so hard on France and the UK, was Attacking Iran when Iran returns the Israeli blow, as Iran has the right to do.
It is not Ukraine's war on Russia. It has always been the US/NATO war with a Ukrainian force, built for the purpose, since 2014.
Ukraine gets nothing but a century worth of debt, to be serviced by extracting Ukrainian coal, iron ore, titanium ore, gas, oil and farmland.
The first to die has always been the working man...
They are no Gods... they are eternal scum.
Coming to wipe out Humanity to replace it with AI.

A rare sight, that beautiful, clear blue sky, behind you!

And the lines--PROMETHEUS (entering.)
Who was it fled from here? I saw a shape
Flitting among the trees.
EPIMETHEUS.
It was Pandora.
PROMETHEUS.
O Epimetheus! Is it then in vain
That I have warned thee? Let me now implore.
Thou harborest in thy house a dangerous guest.
EPIMETHEUS.
Whom the Gods love they honor with such guests.
PROMETHEUS.
Whom the Gods would destroy they first make mad.
EPIMETHEUS.
Shall I refuse the gifts they send to me?
PROMETHEUS.
Reject all gifts that come from higher powers.
All thinking is the psychological expression of a hoomin
organism's paramount instinct, the instinct of self preservation...
Dont let Them tell you otherwise...
Suicidal thoughts exist, too.

Ukraine is the sucker in this crooked game.
Some "support".
;-(
Thank you for the clarification. Clearly I am late to these topics and misunderstand both the history and the current situation.
I agree that Iran has the right to "return Israel's blow". And the US should stay out of it.
