@MLClark I agree with the premise of the article, but ultimately it doesn't matter what I think. The electorate in Israel has to wise up.
Netanyahu's visit to Donald Trump should have been a powerful indication of his pathology, but a lot of Israelis probably saw that simply as smart statecraft.
I would like to see Netanyahu treated as a pariah by more countries, but I suspect that Israel engages in nuclear blackmail these days.
@hallmarc @MLClark
The implicit threat that if countries do not support and assist Israel, then Israel will have no choice but to use tactical nuclear weapons against neighboring countries if they threaten its existence.
"Nice Middle East you got here. Be shame if something bad was to happen to it..."
@hallmarc @MLClark One of the downsides to world conflict is that nuclear weapons were only used twice, so very few people have first hand experience of the impact and after-effects. Many people see nuclear weapons as just a very big bomb or missile.
