I don't know, but I can hope.
Let me know when he forces AIPAC and the rest of the coterie of Jewish lobbying operations to register as foreign agents.
Better be careful about grassy knolls.
Greenwald's take: ...it's complicated. Maybe?
There are doubts (because US is historically Israel's bitch), but Trump is also unpredictable, it does seem like Israel/Bibi have pissed him off multiple times, and he's also got interests that might go counter to Israel's, in the region.
Unclear at this time, essentially.
I think it's a mutual-assured destruction type scenario.
If the US sidelines Israel then the Jews will activate all their AIPAC and mossad to cause untold destruction inside the US - not just politically, they have no compunction against physical attacks (USS Liberty), shutting down the power grid and such as. On the other hand, Israel can't exist without US support so if they don't kowtow to Trump they risk losing everything.
The rubicon is the Epstein files. If these actually get released it means US-Israel is over. If those files are released, if I was a Jew in US or Israel I would immediately flee to a 3rd world country and disappear, because neither country will be safe.
sargon thinks it might have started as Trump felt disrespected by bibi/Israel, acting like we're the client state when it's the other way around. It'd be ironic if Trump cuts off Israel not because of the national security threats of compromised politicians, but because Israel didn't even pretend to show respect while doing it. fucking hubris
