The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

That's why anyone who takes U.S. interests seriously - like someone who wants to rise in leadership in either party rather than just be a soundbite warrior - ends up taking a cautious approach to U.S.-Israeli relations and our military support of the country. Not because they need to play nice with "masters," but because it's an important facet of our foreign policy.
****

Just because someone questions genuflecting for one side in someone else's conflict, especially when many in the world question such - doesn't mean they don't take U.S interest seriously.

It just means - they get relegated to occupied territory, even in cyberspace.

And - well, people braver than them are sick of it, and are taking action.

And younger generations of all stripes are waking up to it.

All I'm doing is hoping some of those voices don't become Israeli Mules, and can still make it to key levers of power without doing so. Granted it's as probable as me losing weight -but hey, I walked 20 minutes yesterday anything is possible.
