Why didn’t the lousy MOU call for the removal of Hezbollocks from Lebanon? Rhetorical question because we all know the answer. America has been utterly compromised by Islam. Haven’t seen a worse capitulation since Chamberlain
@POTUS@realDonaldTrump@SecRubio@VP@JDVance
To Trump: In the Middle East, loyalty is currency. If you abandon your closest friend halfway through a fight and cut deals behind their back while leaving them exposed, don't expect anyone to trust your guarantees again. You told the world, "The U.S. and Israel carried out an operation against Iran," then walked away and left your ally standing alone.
In the Middle East, we don't judge friends by speeches; we judge them by who stays when the missiles fly. A person who abandons an ally halfway and cuts deals behind their back is not someone you call in a crisis.
You will say it's about American interests. Fine. But others also have interests, and they have memories. You can call it "America's interests." We call it something else: leaving your friends in the storm.
Before asking, "Why don't they defend themselves?" remember that countries like Israel did and are still doing so alone.
And also remember that the UAE defended itself, struck back forcefully, and banned the Muslim Brotherhood. Many of your countries in the West did neither.
The lesson is simple. If you can leave your closest friend exposed today, why should anyone trust your promises tomorrow? Maybe it's time for the Middle East to start thinking about alternatives.
And yes, when Iran strikes again, don't assume the Middle East will dial Washington. People don't call someone who might leak information to Turkey or cut a deal with Tehran while their friends are still under fire.
We were disappointed when first Hochstein under Biden, then Barrack (what is it about people with the name Barrack/Barak?) under Trump tipped off Hezbollah ahead of critical Israeli strikes. But we let that go.
We were bitterly disappointed and betrayed when CIA analyst Asif Rahman leaked classified plans with Iran ahead of our operation. But for the sake of our relationship with our ally, we let that go.
We were hugely disappointed and felt betrayed when Trump told Witkoff to notify Qatar ahead of our strike to take out the Hamas leadership in Doha which saved their lives. But again, we let that go for the sake of our relationship.
There are other incidents that are even greater betrayals of trust that occurred with the Trump admin tipping off our enemies, but for the sake of our relationship with our ally, we agreed not to release or reveal details and kept these highly classified.
But this betrayal that’s just occurred, the manner in which Trump and Vance have chosen willingly to betray us and feed us to the wolves publicly while praising the worst terrorist groups that have murdered Americans��� this is one betrayal we won’t forget. Many at the top may not ever say so publicly, but none of us will forget.
The United States have a long history of leaking classified information and tipping off adversaries in betrayal of allies, so long as it benefits their own interests. And the US has a long history of betraying those allies who have sacrificed everything to stand with and support the US, including the Trump admin who are becoming notorious for it. And worst of all, it has nothing to do with putting American interests first and everything to do with sheer incompetence and personal agendas and ideologies.
But what has transpired over the past few days is something that has betrayed us, and other US allies, in a way that nobody will forget. It’s not just the betrayal, but the malice and dismissive arrogance it was conducted with, and the gaslighting and threats that were thrown in.
The United States will never fully realize the damage they’ve caused and they alone have caused that will have lasting effects for the future. They may think they’re so big and bad that they don’t care and that they can simply do as they please, but the real world where grownups play doesn’t work that way. It’s easy to sit in front of a camera and talk tough to the media to feed your own egos. Not so easy to fix things when you end up needing to be saved yourselves and wake up to realize you’re alone.
Trust matters. And America has lost the trust of their only friends.
Remember this moment well.
The day the President of the US, Donald Trump, guaranteed the survival of the world's largest terrorist regime - the Islamic Republic of Iran - and its terror proxies.
Remember this day: the lowest point in American history. The entire world will pay the price for it.
Remember who is responsible for this.
⭕️ As someone who voted for Trump three times, it is painful for me to say that Trump is not a partner anymore. This situation is no longer sustainable. Trump's obsession with his JCPOA 2.0 deal is making him act unhinged. He is now falling for anything coming out of Iran. The Iranians had a goal today, and they 100% achieved it thanks to Trump. Bibi's judgment is exactly what Israelis would expect of him: to defend them from attacks. Trump humiliating Bibi in public too many times now, and this marks the point where it is time for the US and Israel to go their separate ways. Bibi must declare that Israel is not part of any JCPOA 2.0 and is free to act in its own best interests to protect its citizens. Trump can keep throwing tantrums and punishing Israel, but as bad as it is, it won't be worse than capitulating to Iran. It is time for Israel to take its own destiny into its hands and become truly independent.
Trump, you're right. The strike on Beirut shouldn't have happened this morning. It should have happened a long time ago.
We, the citizens of Israel, are not your puppets. We didn't vote for you. You are not our prime minister.
You do not get to decide whether we respond when we are under attack. You do not get to manage the lives of millions of Israelis.
We appreciate everything you have done for the State of Israel, but it's time for you to understand that Israel is not another star on your flag.
You have become a deeply divisive figure. Israelis should not have to sit in bomb shelters waiting to hear what you say in order to know whether they can leave. The way you speak about our prime minister, and your rush to the media after every conversation between you, has earned you a great deal of contempt here.
You asked, "What the fuck is Bibi doing?" He's doing exactly what he is expected to do: protecting the people of Israel. He is not meant to serve your interests.
The surrender deal you are eager to sign with a murderous regime that has brutally oppressed its own people for 47 years and openly seeks our destruction is, in our eyes, one of the greatest disgraces imaginable. For Israel, it is a suicide pact.
Do not expect us to sit quietly while rockets and explosive drones are fired at us. Do not expect us to embrace the weakness you are displaying.
You are normalizing attacks on Israel. You are normalizing a reality in which millions of Israelis live between bomb shelters, rockets, and explosive drones.
By your actions, you are creating a dangerous equation: the IRGC and terrorist organizations are learning that they can attack Israel while Israel is expected not to respond.
There has never been a time when Israel sat and waited to see whether it would be attacked. That is not how you defeat terrorism.
That is not strength. It is surrender.
Israel has fought terrorism for generations and defeated it. We will not surrender to terror because you choose to do business with it.
We do not bribe terrorists, and we do not sell our values to accommodate them. If a terrorist organization were firing at New York and sending explosive drones into its streets, you would decide for yourself how to respond.
We have dedicated our lives to telling the world that terrorism must never pay. You chose to yield to it. Pride and ego prevent you from admitting mistakes and correcting them.
It is time for Israel to tell you no. Without apology.
. @SecRubio needs to get himself far away from the stench of this catastrophic failure of a deal immediately. I really like him but I can not support anyone associated with this shit show. This is truly a Chamberlain moment.
I’m pretty sure the Iranian people in general feel betrayed by the US for this looming deal with their oppressors.
They’re not alone: Israelis, Emiratis , Lebanese and Bahrainis, to name a few, probably share the sentiment.
Not a good look for the leader of the free world.
What does America get for $3.8 billion in military aid to Israel?
Short answer: economic, security, military, innovation, and strategic returns.
Long answer:
• Jobs: American jobs and manufacturing.
• Industry: A stronger U.S. defense industrial base.
• Intelligence: Information that helps prevent attacks against Americans and U.S. interests.
• Technology: Combat-proven military technologies.
• Laboratory: Access to one of the world's most active laboratories for modern warfare.
• Lessons: Battlefield lessons without paying for them in American blood.
• Innovation: A defense innovation ecosystem benefiting both countries.
• Ally: A capable ally helping deter common adversaries and maintain regional stability.
• Strategy: Greater freedom to focus on competition with China in the Indo-Pacific while preserving a favorable balance of power in the Middle East.
Full answer: Read the article.
There will never be a two state solution.
Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, and the rest of their proxies exist to kill Jews, obliterate Israel and then destroy the USA.
They don’t chant death to America for fun.
They are the fourth Reich and until they are obliterated like the third Reich there will never be peace in the Middle East.
WHAT WE GIVE ISRAEL
The standard US military aid package is $3.8 billion per year $3.3 billion in Foreign Military Financing plus $500 million for joint missile defense programs. Israel must spend most of this on US-made products and services, and by 2028 essentially all of it must be spent in America.
WHAT ISRAEL GIVES BACK
1. F-35 R&D Savings: 55 billion
Israel resolved multiple technical issues during the F-35’s early development, reducing US R&D costs by an estimated $55 billion and accelerating deployment timelines.  The total F-35 program cost was $55 billion in R&D Israel’s combat testing effectively saved the US from having to discover and fix those problems on their own dime.
2. Intelligence Value: equivalent to 5 CIAs (75 billion/year)
General George Keegan, former Chief of US Air Force Intelligence, stated that Israel’s intel value equals “5 CIAs” providing a 400% return on investment on the $3.8 billion aid package. One CIA budget runs approximately $15 billion.  Five times that equals roughly $75 billion worth of intelligence annually for $3.8 billion in aid.
3. Strategic Base Value: $15–20 billion/year
As stated by Admiral Elmo Zumwalt and General Alexander Haig, Israel is the largest US aircraft carrier that does not require US military personnel on board, cannot be sunk, and is deployed in a critical region sparing the US the need to manufacture, deploy, and maintain real aircraft carriers with ground divisions, which would cost the US $15–20 billion annually. 
4. F-35 Export Multiplier: $40 billion in sales, $173 billion backlog
Israel’s battle-tested performance and upgrades to the F-35 contribute to $40 billion in US exports and a $173 billion backlog for US industry.  Israel essentially serves as the world’s most credible advertisement for American weapons.
5. Jobs and Economic Output: 255,000 jobs, $72 billion annually
The F-35 economic engine alone supports 290,000 US employees and $72 billion in annual economic output.  Israeli stakeholders hold contracts with over 1,000 American companies across 48 states, DC, and Puerto Rico.
Why do people need to lie about this?
Because they have nefarious reasons.
There’s no other reason to lie about this stuff.
Masks are off.
Antizionism = Antisemitism
That recognition is the 1st critical step to combatting ‘modern’, mainstream strain of an ever-mutating lethal hate - that demonizes, delegitimizes & applies double standards - to the individual Jew and/or Jewish nation state 🇮🇱.
Hezbollah in Lebanon, one of the many terrorist proxies of the Iranian regime, has been firing missiles at Israel nonstop since around October 8, 2023, killing several Israelis and displacing 100,000’s more.
The Trump administration’s refusal to acknowledge this fact as well as Israel’s right to eliminate Hezbollah — all while demanding the Israelis stop attacking Hezbollah — is doing the disinformation job of Islamic terrorists.
Any claim that the legal foundations of Israel’s legitimacy rest on UNGA 194 reflect a complete ignorance of the legal evolutions from the first modern documents, such as San Remo, and their transfer eventually under UN charter article 80.
San Remo (1920) set off a chain through the Mandate, which was enshrined in the UN Charter itself, that established solid legal foundations for the Jewish state. In other words, Israel’s legitimacy is baked into the UN Charter itself, based on the legal development a quarter century earlier.
UN partition resolution UNGA 181 had thus great political currency but carried no legal weight since the legal foundation of Israel’s resurrection was already sent in legal stone. UN General Assembly Resolution 194 is ultimately entirely irrelevant and has no legal weight.
And even if it did, read resolution 194 carefully. It notes that refugees should return to their homes OR receive compensation. It does not require repatriation. There were 850,000 Jewish refugees emerging in 1948-50 as opposed to 600,000 Arabs. The value of the properties abandoned by Jews from Arab countries dwarfed the value of Arab holdings abandoned in Israel at the time.
As such, if UNGA were implemented or legally required , it would only involve compensation not repatriation, and adding up the amount of compensation of what the Arab world would owe the Jews and their descendants far exceeds the amount of what Israel would owe 1948 Arab refugees and their descendants.
In that sense, not only does UNGA 194 have nothing to do with establishing Israel legal foundation, and not only is it a non-binding declaratory resolution rather than a legally binding one, but it is also ultimately a self-own for the Arab side, and they should be thankful it is not legally binding in any way.
There is no one better to break it down than @noatishby. 👇
Zionism is one of the most misunderstood - and most deliberately distorted - words in modern discourse. It has been weaponized, redefined, and twisted so far from its original meaning that many people genuinely don't know what it actually stands for.

🧵 For three years, anyone who suggested that American taxpayer money was helping fuel Israel's anti judicial reform protest movement was dismissed as a conspiracy theorist.
Today, the House Judiciary Committee released a memo alleging that a network of U.S. government funded NGOs, major philanthropic foundations, and tax exempt nonprofits collectively moved millions of dollars to organizations involved in organizing anti Netanyahu protests, supporting anti Israel activism, and in some cases funding groups accused of ties to designated terrorist organizations.

Fun fact:
In 1917, the Balfour Declaration was written. The Arabs rejected it because they wanted all the land. They refused to accept any Jewish sovereignty on the land.
In 1920, the League of Nations gave Britain the official Mandate for the land that had belonged to the Ottoman Empire. The entire area was set aside as the Jewish homeland. This included what is today Israel (with Gaza, Samaria and Judea) and the whole of Jordan.
The Arabs rejected this too.
They wanted all the land and refused to accept any Jewish sovereignty.
In 1922, the Saudi Hashemite royals and other Arabs made a secret deal with Britain behind the Jews’ backs, and without the approval of the League of Nations.
Britain then carved out Transjordan and gave the entire area to the Arabs. This was 77% of the total land that had been promised as the Jewish homeland.
The Arabs happily accepted and took Transjordan, but they still rejected the remaining 23% for the Jews. They refused to accept any Jewish sovereignty on the land.
Now ask yourself this question:
If the Arabs were already given 77% of the land that was meant for the Jewish state, why are we still talking about carving up the last 23% and giving them even more?
When you see the truth, you understand who the real problem is, and why we will fight to keep the little land we have left.
