“Israel would undoubtedly behave in an at least somewhat more normal fashion without endless American support. Already having a regional nuclear monopoly, the state’s existence is hardly as under threat as its many partisans in the media presume. But its offensive projection ability abroad is aided by American defense and logistical support. As Israel further wreaks havoc across the Middle East on an ever expanding list of countries which face direct attack, it is the United States that could (and should) pull the plug on outside support for this chaos. But it should not do it in a way that validates the standard neoconservative and liberal interventionist talking points about the ‘Responsibility to Protect’ doctrine.” (08/04/25)
