It’s insane that the US government is allowing Israel to go along with this.
The US government isn't allowing anything. The US government is insane and is currently decorating the walls of its room with rows of illegible scribblings using its own fecal matter.
We're at the finish of an election that is going to be decided by a largely random opinion swing in a handful of places. That swing may determine outcome A despite the overwhelming majority of the system backing outcome B (popular vote, most populous states etc). There is no genuine popular debate happening about it because the US system is completely outdated and unrepresentative and the media are predatory institutions controlled and run by people with too much influence and no accountability. Since the recent redistricting some 60% American voters live in electoral districts that function as one-party states. The other 20% live in electoral districts that are on the verge of becoming one-party states. The actual voting choice is left to a minority and it's a choice between two insane candidates who refuse to accept election loss in 2020 and a candidate that has never won a primary and inherited the position because the candidate that allegedly won the primary in 2020 is unfit to run. Whatever the outcome will be the other side will reject it and the conclusion will be decided by a test of numbers and strength. This won't be an election but a contest in who can prevent a coup or a revolt faster. The threat of civil conflict is very real unless Democrats win decisively and overwhelmingly and so far that scenario is by no means obvious. If Republicans win they will start a civil conflict to ensure they never lose again because the demographics of the country are against them and their traditional tricks are no longer working.On top of that the Republican candidate is senile and insane and completely unfit and his replacement is owned by megalomaniacs who want the destruction of western society to impose "Dark Enlightenment". It reads like a script for a stupid B-tier sci-fi movie except it's literally happening.
^ If the above paragraph feels like said illegible scribblings then that's only because it's a very faithful reproduction of the original.
Netanyahu is indeed trying to save his own skin but right now
he is trying to force an election outcome in the US. He is one of the people who understand the US political system, its public and private face, its outer and inner workings, like very few other people in the world. He gamed it very successfully for years and one may argue he even had some small part in shaping it. So he's casting a vote, in the way that matters most in America, for the candidates that will protect him.
This has nothing to do with Israel. The entire situation could be resolved very quickly if it would not influence an election that is already a nightmare. Literally they're trying to pull off October Surprise except this time it's the sequel so it must be bigger and better.
