The unconstitutional US war against the people of Iran to benefit Israel will now cost the peace-loving, hardworking American taxpayer $100bn. Meanwhile, one estimate shows this idiotic war to kill Iranians is costing the Israeli taxpayer $12.7bn. And Americans are a galaxy and a half away from having universal healthcare, as enjoyed by the people of Israel, Germany, Greenland, Canada, Cuba, 95% of Iran, Taiwan, the UK, tiny Albania, and in 2027, Mexico.

Israeli police unleashed the locusts on ultra-Orthodox Jews protesting mandatory military service in the IDF. Tens of thousands joined the demonstrations, as police used water cannon, stun grenades, and horses to disperse crowds. In the video you can see an Israeli mounted police officer's horse trampling one of the Haredim.
Undeclared Civil War Erupting in Israel
In 1956, "Ike" ran Operation Wetback to round up and deport hundreds of thousands of Mexican migrants.
WWII had forced American women into factories and our farm boys into uniforms. So, in came the Mexicans.
Operation Wetback was industrial-scale deportation and another iteration of the 1919-20 "Red Scare" Palmer Raids (which like today's ICE also produced two martyrs, Sacco and Vanzetti) or the interment of thousands and thousands of innocent Japanese-Americans from 1942-45.
White European refugees came here after WWII to work American farms and factories.
The US and Canada specifically took them from DP and refugee camps in Germany and Austria ran by the newly-created UNRWA.
To make room for white labor, the Mexicans were sacrificed.
Fighting the Third Reich, Eisenhower had learned from the Nazis the efficiency of moving millions of people by rail. www.tamucc.edu
And for many of those new anti-communist white refugees from Europe, they voted for Dwight Eisenhower in 1952 and 1956 simply because of name recognition. "Why, that's General Eisenhower, the man that beat Hitler. Who is Adlai Stevenson?" And hence a new generation of white Republicans was incubated.
Those white refugees settling into Kansas, Missouri, or Texas farms and ranches may not have known or cared about the mass deportations of their brown-skinned predecessors.
Endnote: Across the Atlantic, post-WWII UK imported temporary low-wage labor from the Caribbean, who were then treated poorly by the "cockneys and Colonel Mustards." A British mystery film in the early 1960s told the tale of a murdered Caribbean woman in London and a shameful cover-up. Otherwise, talking about the Windward Islands labor scandal was taboo for many years in the UK.
Israel today looks like America in 1968.
Thanks to the right wing junta of PM Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli society is being pecked apart by several corroding factors, to wit: the secular vs religious; Islamophobes vs co-existers; homophobes vs LGBTQ+; war-mongers vs pacifists; patriots vs draft evaders; Israeli Arabs vs Israeli Jews; Settlers vs West Bank Arabs; fanatical Jews vs Christians.
Moreover, Israeli society will see a marked increase in PTSD, drug abuse, mental health issues, and suicides from IDF veterans as a result of all these cruel wars against the Palestinians, Lebanese, and Iranians.
No wonder 2025 saw the first net migration loss in Israel's history.
