Bullocks, politcally Israelis are essentially on a scale from ultra-fascist (the left) to Nazi (the right/far right).

Netanyahu is on the Nazi-side of this spectrum, aiming at conquering as much land as possible while getting rid of their native inhabitants. He couldn't care less about himself; he only cares for the prospect of lebensraum.

Some of them might certainly want to "Lebensraum" their neighbors, but at least for Netanyahu it is about political survival. It is why he allowed the Oct 7th attack to happen, because he was close at getting removed from the post and that mean facing the prospect of jail time as he would no longer have the inmunity afforded by the PM position.

He might be a bloodthirsty savage but he isn't dumb when it comes to his own survival and will do everything in its power to avoid getting jailed, even if it means getting more Israelis killed.


Seems there might have been a mass casualty event on the Lebanon border during clashes with Hezbollah

Hmmm, the US Navy launched a whole year of SM3's production at the missiles?

More details on the ambush on IDF soldiers trying to cross into Lebanon

Good. Looks like I was wrong to assume that Hezbollah had been quiet after the Iranian missile bombardments. Now is the time to give the IDF a proper fight.

Related to the SM3 expenditure in this salvo, apparently for next year the procurement of new SM3's is actually 0

Compared to the previous year’s projections, the 2025 White House defense budget cuts previously planned procurement of SM-3 IB over the next five years from 153 to zero—saving $1.9 billion. However, these savings are not reinvested in SM-3 Block IIA production, of which quantities

The Biden administration has completely lost control of the situation. They can’t control their mad dog Israel and we are staring into the abyss right now. Iran has made it clear if its oil facilities are attacked not only will they strike Israel harder they will destroy all oil and gas facilities in the Persian Gulf. If that happens say goodbye to the global economy. I can’t believe this is happening.
