  No it isn’t, nothing Israel does happens without American approval and support. Mossad has kompromat on Trump and that’s pulling him in this or another direction, sure, but that’s a different story and a new development, a circumstantial one. The moment America has a new leader that hasn’t been recorded doing the nastiest of deeds by Mossad, even with AIPAC bribing many American politicians, Israel will be just one of many groups influencing American politics as it was in the recent past.

    Yes, but Israel has bought enough senators, congresspeople and others that it dictates what America approves.

      It’s not that simple, there are other people also bribing American politicians with opposing stances/objectives (Gulf countries, for example), or else Bibi wouldn’t have had to fly personally to meet with Trump and try to convince him like 6 times in the span of a year, risking arrest (for reference, I think Bibi only did it once when Biden was in office). In the end, the blame lies within America, because if the leaders were even slightly moral, or if the people cared even a little bit about politics (in general, I know many American Lemmings care), this shit wouldn’t happen.

        The thing is trump is dumb and does whatever theast person he spoke to wants. Before trump things were much quieter.
