    My sympathy for Israel is pretty much gone now.

      Let me just clarify that this is my sympathy for the State of Israel that I’m talking about, not my attitude toward Jewish people in general who have nothing to do with this.

      They definitely got played like a fiddle and did exactly what their enemies wanted them to do.

      The ripple effects of this genocide is going to ruin their ability to have normal state relations and any semblance of security for generations.

      Israel lost the long game, because they reacted and failed to choose to respond.

        This is really weird phrasing that pretends that Israel has no responsibility for their actions.

        They chose to do this, they are responsible for what they’ve done.

          Let me be clear. Israel is fully responsible. They were an obvious mark for manipulation (this is Israel’s fault). Because of this, an adversary provoked them, and successfully goaded them into making a genocidal blunder. Also Israel’s fault.

          The Israeli government is unhinged, hateful and fascist and those qualities were leveraged by an adversary. It’s an absolute embarrassment.
