      You said it has nothing to do with the USA which is not the case since diplomatic protection from the USA and all the aid it gives to Israel is allowing Israel to abduct people in international law

        Tbh I’m not sure where the misunderstanding even comes from. With what have I hinted that?

        I said they (Israel) would not have (advanced) economy or military power without the USA.
        (I even especially mentioned USA’s ‘political support’.)
        I think that obviously very much covers the possibility of any extensive military campaigning.

        Even with USA actions after WWII, without constant (and very sus) protections, direct & indirect support Israel would have been an enclave by the 70s.
        But the USA wants to have a platform for their nuclear weapons & military logistics in that region.
