We have a central and direct location in order to land troops and military hardware in the event of a conflict in the ME.
No you don't and virtually the whole muslim world would rise against you if you dared
Only people who don't understand geopolitics would say what you said. I certainly don't have time to educate people on it
I'm very well informed on that subject thank you
All I will say is, read up on cold war geopolitics and educate yourself on the strategic interests both sides were fighting for and why, then you will understand why the US supports Israel.
Once you have read and educated yourself on that, you should read the about how geopolitics effected WW1 and WW2 as well as how it determined who emerged as the economic powerhouses after those conflicts. The problem here is that people don't know, or simply choose to ignore the context of past political decisions, as well as how those decisions still effect us today.
I'd be happy to do a pop quiz with anyone on this forum on the history of the Cold War and 20th century history as far as that goes. I have a personal library of literature on this as it has always been a great interest of mine
