In Congress today, the war criminal who has starved, killed and maimed tens of thousands of Palestinians was given standing ovations and 70 applause breaks.

It wasn't the only thing that happened. Over 100 Democrats boycotted the address and thousands protested outside. Still, I think this cartoon captures the spectacle of what happened inside the building.

US has minimal economic interest in the middle east, look at the US trade flows. No country is the middle east is threat to the US in any meaningful sense.

Maintaining control on the supply and flow of oil is one of the more important tasks on the US Empire's list.

Also, we are a net exporter of oil for at least a decade now.

Doesn't matter, the US needs to maintain control so the world has to trade in US Petrodollars.

You spouting Israeli propaganda to justify US support for their clown regime and genocide.

Nope, I want the American Empire to collapse and Israel to be abolished into a One-State Solution. That Solution starts with recognizing why the US supports Israeli genocide.

This relationship is a huge negative for the US geopolitical interests and the world order we maintain. And it appears like the normies don't even understand these risks because "empire needs military bases" we have bases in many countries without a genocide lol and "economic interests" that nobody can articulate

Oh, I think I get it, you support the US Empire and want it to succeed, that's why you call it "world order." Additionally, the purposes of those bases are of course maintenance of Empire.

AIPAC really got the entire country by the balls it seems sniffing israeli farts

Partially true, but the US needs Israel if it wants to maintain the Petrodollar standard.
