    Yes, it simply represents the leverage Israel holds over the US.

      What leverage? Biden is the ideologically aligned with the Israeli right (occasional theater notwithstanding)

      No, the US supports Israel because it’s in the interest of their own capital class, which is also why the Brits supported the creation of Israel in the first place.

      The idea that the US supports Israel because of Israeli leverage also sounds quite a bit like antisemitic conspiracy theories, and I’m surprised people throw it around willy-nilly.

        You’re right, but outrage > facts, leading to effective political division and a collectively weaker class to govern.

        Our capital class is the leverage.

    If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck; it is not a duck.

    I don’t think that word means what you think it means.
