Wow, thank you for your reply. That all makes a lot of sense. I know Israel isn’t the most well liked nation in the middle east, so US support would definitely piss people off over there. All this conflict between the u.s and the middle east…feels like it will never end.

Forgive my ignorance, but it feels like in such a short time the US is yet again involved various conflicts in the middle east. It’s so fast I feel like I can barely keep up. What the hell has made this expand beyond the conflict between Israel/Gaza?
