    Hey like always i feel obligated to push back on insinuations that America is an Israeli puppet when the reality is Israel is an American backed and propped up government to project power and pursue similar interests in the the middle east region.

      No American puppet has the influence over the running of the US as does Israel. Israel is clearly the one setting policy here.

        I would argue the military industrial complex plays a big part. Not often talked about but they are the big winners in war

      Isreal would be fine without american support. The reason the get support is because its mutually beneficial.

      Calling either a puppet is taking agency away from their decisions. They consciously choose their paths without any pressure.
