Living in Israel, it is hard for me to figure out exactly what is going on on my place of birth, the US of A. You spelled it out well. When I saw a poster which said, “Why not cut $18 B funding to genocide in Gaza, instead of: veteran assistance, social security…blah blah blah…” I knew that it always comes down to the joos.
Never doubt that in America there is a deep resiviour of goodwill for Israel. The national epic of the Jewish state sounds an echo here. There are dissonant voices, yes, but don't speak for us in the large.
Agreed from start to finish. The long-term consequences of this scandal remain to be seen, however. I suspect that they may be more profound than we can see now.
Andrew Sullivan isn't a soggy sentimentalist. He is an out and out antisemite, who claims the US in deporting Khalil is doing the bidding of a cabal beholden to a foreign government. And you thought Sully changed because he had to acknowledge that he was played by Hamas and realized that he looked like a useful idiot by believing them about anything. But when push comes to shove, he reverted back to Jew-hating type.
Sully has always been a POS.
At this point, I just get tired.
I could write a whole thing about him, but life's too short.
Bullseye and well done. Andrew Sullivan should head on over to Gaza and join the antisemites Hamas. They would welcome him with open arms.

The silent majority. Yes. I definitely see the support, especially on Substack.
Thinking (meaning honest) Americans knew that Biden was a turnip years ago.
Now the Dems admit that they lied (or they say, perhaps they just didn't tell us everything).
But we still don't know who ran the country.
There will be no consequences for those who lied to us and mismanaged the country.
But the country is paying the price.
Thinking Americans (see above for further descriptors) know that our electoral system has been diminished.

He fell in love with Mahmoud Khalil. Deeply.
