I don't agree that Israel should be left alone.
Not after how they have conducted themselves.
That is not an advocacy for terror or war
I am stating that Israel has acted abysmally towards the Palestinians for decades.
Israel has destroyed the 2-state solution
Israel is committing a genocide
As a result, they should be confronted.
That should involve the US applying political pressure.
We haven't, which allows the radicals in the Israeli government to act with impunity to commit massive war crimes, to commit genocide, to blow up the path to a 2-state solution.
If America had simply conditioned it's aid at any point Israel would have had to change it's actions.
As for the abhorrent beliefs of Iranian leaders, they are equally matched by the radical rightwing Israeli Zionists now controlling the Israeli government. Look at that scumbag Smotrich's attitude towards Palestinians is.

So that is a non-starter as an argument
Hi AU: You're friend was an FBI LEGATT and will tell you the Houthis are the good guys in the Middle East.

I looked up LEGATT. Thanks for that. The only detail about his duties was that he was the FBI rep the joint antiterrorism task force in Sanaa. I'll ask about the Houthis next time he's in town for a visit. In regards to Yemen, conversations tended to be about architecture, historical sites, and some James Bond-ish anecdotes about iffy escapes from folks trying to put an end to them.
