Goldman is as imperialist as rest of them, the only difference is he has accepted rise of China as inevitable and think it's a waste of American resources trying to prevent it.

— /// 15th day of the war, October 21st status update and major events:
– Extremely heavy airstrikes on Gaza throughout the day, especially in the evening. Still a huge lack of food, water, medicine and electricity.
– In the early morning, the Rafah crossing was temporarily opened, and 20 trucks with aid managed to get into Gaza.
– Sporadic rocket attacks by Hamas and PIJ took place on cities like Sderot and Ashkelon.
– Throughout the entire day, Hezbollah carried out many attacks with ATGMs against IDF troops, vehicles and radar stations in numerous settlements near the Lebanese border. At least one Hummer and one Merkava were destroyed, and several IDF soldiers were killed.
– Hezbollah announced 6 new martyrs, bringing the total amount of casualties they suffered since the beginning of the war to 19 deaths.
– As a response to the Hezbollah attacks, the IDF carried out artillery shellings and drone strikes on Hezbollah positions in Lebanon. It seems that the IDF has adapted and is now engaging more directly and proactively against Hezbollah, targeting ATGM squads before they get into position, as well as carrying out targeted drone strikes on known Hezbollah vehicles and manned hideouts.
– The Islamic Resistance in Iraq carried out an attack with two suicide drones against the U.S. military base in Erbil International Airport.
– The IAF carried out an airstrike on Al-Ansari Mosque inside the Jenin camp in the West Bank, claiming it was used as a hideout by Hamas and PIJ.

Execution by decapitation through RPG?
The bolded phrase needs to be looked into.
How many SAMs did USS Carney fire to intercept those 4 cruise missiles and 15 drones?
Should be useful for evaluating and preparing anti-air defenses facing the incessant and/or saturated attacks by missiles and drones in a hypothetical Pacific War 2.0.
More toothless threats from the zionist regime ...
Israel vows to ‘wipe’ Iran, Hezbollah ‘off face of Earth’ if terror group joins Hamas in war: report
Nir Barkat, Israel’s Minister of Economy, warned that it would “eliminate Hezbollah,” their proxy terror group in Lebanon, if it follows through on threats to throw its military support behind Hamas.
“The plan of Iran is to attack Israel on all fronts. If we find they intend to target Israel, we will not just retaliate to those fronts, but we will go to the head of the snake, which is Iran,” Barkat told the Daily Mail.
“The Ayatollahs in Iran are not going to sleep good at night, we are going to make sure they pay a heavy price if, God forbid, they open the northern front.”
Hezbollah has been exchanging fire with Israeli forces on the Lebanese border over the past two weeks in retaliation against the Israel Defense Force’s unrelenting bombing of the Gaza Strip.
The Lebanon-based militia and Iranian officials reportedly helped Hamas refine tactical and strategic plans for the Oct. 7 surprise attack on Israel that left 1,300 dead and took nearly 200 hostage.
Hezbollah leaders proclaimed last week it was “fully prepared” to join the fighting in support of Hamas.
If Israel discovers Hezbollah is fully opening a war front on Israel’s northern border, the IDF will launch an unforgiving charge against Iran, which Barkat said is synonymous with Hezbollah.
The terror group “will not escalate without the order of Iran,” he said, adding that there is a “global alignment of evil” between Iran, Hamas and Hezbollah.
“Lebanon and Hezbollah are going to pay a heavy price, similar to what Hamas is going to pay. But that’s not enough,” Barkat said.
The very clear message is that we are going to be going after the heads of Iran as well. When will we do that? When we decide.
“Israel has a very clear message to our enemies. We are saying to them, look what’s happening in Gaza – you are going to get the same treatment if you attack us. We are going to wipe you off the face of the Earth.”
IDF spokesman Jonathan Conricus on the possible expansion of the geography of the war:
“Hezbollah is dragging Lebanon into a war from which it will gain nothing, but may lose a lot. Hezbollah is playing a very, very dangerous game. They escalate the situation. We are seeing more and more attacks every day. Is the Lebanese state seriously prepared to jeopardize what is left of Lebanon's prosperity and sovereignty for the sake of terrorists in Gaza? This is a question that the Lebanese authorities must ask themselves and answer.”

Honestly this openly evil rhetoric feels like attempts at grasping and coping for relevance, while theyre losing their grip on the mainstream.
I'm not in US so not where the most diehard nazis live, but in my EU country, things seem to have gone from initial sympathy for Israel to widespread condemnation against their brutality. And a majority of those are libs, some of whom believed in the Xinjiang allegations.
Most people just want to believe in "the good side". Unless they're ardent amerinazi supporter, when they see hospitals being bombed and censorship being rolled out, they're gonna get uncomfortable, whether those things are real or just propaganda allegations.

Its like the Israeli cabinet is reading SDF and seeing everyone concluding no modern day Arab alliance will form and go to war with Israel over Gaza, and they are like, ‘This is unacceptable! How can we change this?’
A picture is worth a thousand words.
