Israel awoke to a frightening new reality on Thursday as it absorbed, with disbelief and largely in silence, the terms of Trump’s agreement to end the war with Iran.

It is a disastrous deal from Israel’s point of view, analysts said, because it accomplishes none of Israel’s war aims and arguably leaves the country in worse shape on each of them.

“It’s a bad agreement in which the Americans are paying with cash, and got, at the maximum, a letter of intent,” Yaakov Amidror, a hawkish former national security adviser to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, said in an interview.

    These people wanted us to implement a draft and throw millions of Americans at Israel’s most fortified enemy in the region for peanuts. Fuck AIPAC and all other Israeli organizations that want us to fight their battles for them. We’re staying home and we’re not fighting anyone.

      That’s exactly what Israel wants: let someone else do their genocide for them.

    I like how they just expect the American government to just prioritize their interests over its own. Like “this is a bad deal because it hurts Israel” then you should’ve fucking shown up when they were negotiating the deal you dingus.

    They put their money on the idiot just starting a war, ignoring the warnings this could hang people out to dry, and now they’re shocked he can just stop the war leaves certain people hanging out to dry.

            An exercise? Your evidence that Biden would have been more in line with Israel’s plans than Trump is that they did an exercise in an area of the world where the US is constantly starting shit and “needs” to be prepared for the next time they start shit?

              Why a proud Zionist like Biden enabling the genocide like trump would not be as much in line with Israel’s plan as Trump?

              Yes an exercise leading to this war like the Russian exercise leading to the invasion of Ukraine Zapad-2021 and Union Resolve 2022

                The Millenium exercise was 26 years ago.

                The Israelis have been trying to get the Americans to invade Iran since 1980 with the same song and dance, only Trump was stupid enough to listen.

                If you think President Harris would’ve fallen for it, that’s just bias confirmation on your part.

                  Why would I trust Harris who said she will not change anything in how Biden was dealing with the genocide and claimed that she worked tirelessly for a cease fire which was a lie? You guys are just dumb cultist not any better than trump and republican cultists. Fuck all the fake anti Israel people on lemmy.

                  Rubio admitted that Israel would have gone alone if the USA refused. We all know deep down that even if the USA did not enter the war they would still provide the resources to Israel to try to destroy Iran and we all know Iran would retaliate on American military bases too so america will be forced to join.
