good post, I'd also add Palestine '08 and '14 under Obama where Israel committed a lot of the same crimes as today, and Obama gave them his full unconditional support and said they have a right to defend themself.

and maybe Bernie gets a honorable mention for being just a bump on the steep downhill road, nothing more.

reminds me of Labour, where Corbyn was really only an a strange anomaly. Stürmer's the real continuation of Labour - saying cutting off water, food, fuel to Gaza is cool and good (human rights lawyer btw).

Heck we noticed and commented some time now since the beginning of the Ukraine war that current FP is in some ways even more deranged than even what Kissinger would do. Indeed some would even say current policy makes Kissinger look competent in comparison. That's how bad it is. And to be honest some argument does mention that Kissinger was from an era where the US actualy somewhat respected their peer adversaries, these days its all end of history BS.

the Kissinger era ghouls seemed to have a strategy they were following. I have no clue what the US is doing now. they're rapidly getting rid of any credibility they had, alienating allies in the area, etc. the empire is deteriorating fast.
