"The work we (US) have done has resulted in Israeli actions that were very much prompted by and a result of US advocacy for what needs to happen in the region."

This is completely the opposite of what she is supposed to say, she is saying that Israel is not uncontrollable, but is following US orders.

No way! The nation

  • not leveraging their weapons assistance (unlike even Reagan in 1982)
  • giving diplomatic cover (not only through vetoes in the Security Council, but through threats against others willing to boycott or sanction)
  • undermining talks of a cease-fire (or they're just the most incapable people ever to hold talks)
  • actively bombing those opposing the aggression (e.g. Yemen)
  • still peddling the debunked lies of the perpetrators (Biden's 40 beheaded oven-babies much?)
  • never having cared about international law, if it is not to use it against an enemy (Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Venezuela, Cambodia, and so so many more)

is actually content with what is done with said weapons? What a surprise!

Tim Walz during the debate also let the mask slip: “The expansion of Israel and its proxies is an absolute fundamental necessity for the US to have the steady leadership there (...)”

I mean yeah we know that, but I wonder if the increasingly hitlerian stances taken by Harris et al will actually result in any changes of public opinion or if typical liberals are too swept up in opposition to Trump to notice.
