@LeopoldBloom one only is attacking and invading, which is hated as well as illegal, and the other is a legally protected resistance movement that doesn't invade or attack.
We have all taken the other side. A small number refuse to stop the aggression.

I wonder why the UN General Assembly vote for military action by a coalition of nations spearheaded by Russia and China to drive out the US and Israel from the Middle East. I wouldn't be surprised if the UK, EU, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand abstained.
Why have we taken the other side. By "we", I mean the EU, UK, Canada, Australian, and New Zealand.

@independentone 100% of military aid to Israel is spent here. Along with additional purchases, tech, and intelligence sharing, we get back 8x what we spend on them.
Israel did just fine until the early 1970s when US aid started.

@LeopoldBloom We get back 8x what we spend on them? What exactly does Israel contribute to the US economy?

@independentone What @LeopoldBloom seems to be insinuating is that supporting Israel is good return on investment for the US. It isn't necessarily in terms of direct financial gain. Israel is America's "man-on-the-spot" in the Middle East and projects US military power there. In other words, Israel is a military contractor like Blackwater but better.

We have a memorandum of understanding that could be a peace deal eventually. Israel will go along with whatever is in their best interests, same as any other country.
We did get regime change. They went from being ruled by a doddering theocrat to a military junta. So much winning!

I think Trump has no choice but to make a deal with Iran. I know he will have hell to pay (possibly with his life) for saying no to the small hat terrorist nation but the world economy is about to collapse and unless Trump pulls his support for said small hat terrorist state the world economy will suffer such a collapse it will make the dirty 30s look like a Sunday School picnic. 1929 the economy shrank 20%. Without Trump pulling the US out the world economy is on schedule to shrink 36%. It may be too late already. Only time will tell. Out of oil, out of food (fertilizer), out of natural gas and out of helium used to make computers the world is about to enter a phase that most people can not imagine.
