When you think your own country can't get any worse or embarrassing, it stoops us lower and lower...seems like the end of USA since the rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness has been traded for zion-extremism. There is no rule of law...we are failing, falling.

Yes, I support your observation. The American empire appears to be collapsing.

Slowly and violently.

Absurdly.

To understand the the US support of Israel we have to go back to the roots:

“It was a very racist country all the way through its history, not just anti-black. That was Jefferson’s image and the others more or less agreed with it. So it’s a settler colonialist society. Settler colonialism is far and away the worst kind of imperialism, the most savage kind because it requires eliminating the indigenous population. That’s not unrelated, I think, to the kind of reflexive U.S. support for Israel—which is also a settler colonial society. Its policies resonate with a sense of American history. It’s kind of reliving it. It goes beyond that because the early settlers in the U.S. were religious fundamentalists who regarded themselves as the children of Israel, following the divine commandment to settle the promised land and slaughter the Amalekitesand so on and so forth. That’s right around here, the early settlers in Massachusetts.”

Thank you for your comment. I think I responded but don't see my response here. 100% agree with your observations. Native Americans certainly understand it. Not to mention countless other countries that have been colonized and settled by Supremist. Best

P.S. Sally Hemmings...they were so violent and I can't imagine the terrible things that must have taken place. Yet we revere these men. Clearly he was a pedophile. I'm sure it was rampant and it normalized. Humanity can make me want to vomit and I am truly sick to my stomach. It takes a lot to keep going. May the force be with all of those who are fighting for humanity.

Ok. Yet, that implies today's citizens are identical to those that founded our country, is if time stands still for 200 years. I don't buy it. Further, my ancestors were Scott/Irish and came to USA not as slave owners. This melting pot of America is way more diverse than 250+ years ago. We the people can and must unite against our common enemy, foreign and domestic. Today, that's zionism.

Mark The sentiment is still here and never went away. That is why Trump got in. Racism, patriarchy, misogyny all institutionalized and normalized. Ask any person that is still feeling the oppression today. It's all still here and folks like Trump are happy to fight to keep it.

also they are afraid of the browning of American. Immigrants were okay as long as they were breaking their backs for someone else. Ahhh...but once they move up the chain become educated...time to re-think what to do. Disgusting.

Not everyone is still like that but many are. Especially those old enough to occupy positions of power. Joe Biden is definitely still like that. Trump is still like that. I think the vast majority of the US government, on both sides, is still like that. Murderous racism, settler colonialism is bipartisan.

Agreed. Exactly right. Not everyone but seemingly everyone in a position of power. Thanks AIPAC and the blind eye Americans turn...thinking we can trust our leadership. We need to question every representative now and not let them go on as business as usual...enough is enough.
