The real Netanyahu once bragged about his knowledge of America: "I know what America is. America is something that can be moved easily."
Both US and Israel are partners in crime with blood-soaked hands.
Still, it needs to be said that Israel would be most likely unable to eliminate Hamas, and will then have to withdraw from Gaza, (al mayadeen; read also Neil MacFarquhar’s, sydney morning herald, analysis; even though the Netanyahu government will never admit that Israel is loosing the war against Hamas, Guardian).
Indeed, Former Chief of General Staff of the Israeli occupation army, Dan Halutz, has indicated that "Israel" lost the war against Hamas, stressing that the only victory to be achieved is the overthrow of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,(al mayadeen 26/12/23).
This is because no doubt about the Israeli military campaign in Gaza is among the deadliest and most destructive in recent history. Over a two-month period, the offensive has wreaked more destruction than the razing of Syria’s Aleppo between 2012 and 2016, Ukraine’s Mariupol or, proportionally, the Allied bombing of Germany in World War II. It has killed more civilians than the U.S.-led coalition did in its three-year campaign against the Islamic State group.
However, who gains in these perpetual conflicts but the Military-Industrial Congressional Complex (MICC); read collective on foreign affairs: Israel war debts enrich US merchants of death.
Israel atrocious activities in the extirpation of Palestinians as a people, therefore, are unacceptable - and indefensible, (al jazeera; arabnews; anadolu ajansi; south china morning post; Amnesty; un.org). In short, while dealing with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, US has no easy way out, (foreign affairs, December 2023), but whether the present administration can undertake further risks and to act boldly is another matter of geopolitical considerations especially whilst the Abraham Accords that geostrategically integrated Israel into the region, but totally disregarding the Palestinians, ( Russia Global Affairs, 13/12/2023), and that solving the region’s other problems (ISIS, Syria, Iran, Yemen) while avoiding the Palestinian issue suited the Great Powers and almost everyone, except now that Hamas wants to submerge, if not sink these plans and force everyone to turn their attention back to Palestine, (Fyodora Lukyanov); [or Ukraine to prevent a Third World War, (Sergei Karaganov)].
Afterall, US foreign policy is but a scam built on corruption, according to Jeffrey Sachs, and rested upon a plutocratic- governance ruling class, (Kishore Mahbubani) where monopoly capital is put in place by force (Karl Marx and Federick Engels, On Colonialism [New York: International Publishers, 1972].
The flames of national liberation struggle are not embers but still burning.
