Israel awoke to a frightening new reality on Thursday as it absorbed, with disbelief and largely in silence, the terms of Trump’s agreement to end the war with Iran.

It is a disastrous deal from Israel’s point of view, analysts said, because it accomplishes none of Israel’s war aims and arguably leaves the country in worse shape on each of them.

“It’s a bad agreement in which the Americans are paying with cash, and got, at the maximum, a letter of intent,” Yaakov Amidror, a hawkish former national security adviser to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, said in an interview.

    If only there was an incredibly public record of the last 30 years of massive incompetency and self serving done by the guy they rallied behind. Idiot fascists.

    Should we remind them they started this dumpster fire? Bombed and invaded their neighbors, then dog walked Dementia Man into joining them. Sorry but they played themselves and now they’re stuck with the consequences.

    These people wanted us to implement a draft and throw millions of Americans at Israel’s most fortified enemy in the region for peanuts. Fuck AIPAC and all other Israeli organizations that want us to fight their battles for them. We’re staying home and we’re not fighting anyone.

      That’s exactly what Israel wants: let someone else do their genocide for them.

    I still dont know why Israel exists. Like no one needs a “homeland” that was promised in a fairy tale a million years ago. Creating a homeland for an ethnic or religious group doesn’t work. Just look at India and Pakistan. Worked out wonderfully right? Wrong.

      Pissrael is like what, 75 years old? It has no tradition or culture deep enough to warrant all the suffering it creates, it should be dismantled, scrapped and sold for parts.

      Very much a “tragic, the worst person you know makes a great point moment”

      Edit: to be clear fuck Israel’s motives here but it is a capitulation on an unprecedented scale

    I like how they just expect the American government to just prioritize their interests over its own. Like “this is a bad deal because it hurts Israel” then you should’ve fucking shown up when they were negotiating the deal you dingus.

      I haven’t read the agreement but isn’t one of the stipulations the fact that Israel has to stop hatefucking Lebanon?

      I’m pretty sure the deal requires Israel to stop bombing Lebanon. Which is interesting, since it forces Conservatives here to choose between their two favorite things: killing brown people and making money.
