In a long-awaited report, the State Department lays out numerous suspected international humanitarian violations by Israel in its war on Gaza, yet suggests no changes in policy or consequences.
The Biden administration concludes it is likely that Israel used U.S.-supplied weapons in “incidents that raise concerns” about the country’s legal compliance, while crediting Israel for investigating them.
The report also concludes Israel is not currently blocking humanitarian aid, despite “deep concerns” about “action and inaction” by the government resulting in aid delivery to Gaza that “remains insufficient.”
What does Israel have on the US?
Every president since it’s been created has done anything they have asked.
They’re geopolitically an important Ally in the region. Sure the United States has bases Etc everywhere. But in the region only other group even remotely as friendly is the house of saud. Whose country nearly all of the 9/11 attackers were from. And who helped train and fund them. Not nearly as reliable and Ally as Israel has historically been.
There has been some reporting that Jeffrey Epstein was a Mossad agent honey trapping politicians in the US. It was reported on RT but I’ve been wondering the same thing.

“Reported on RT” is an oxymoron
Israel is a more-or-less democracy in a region where that is quite scarce. For a long time, most of the Arab league was aligned with the Soviet Union, and Israel was the only and primary counterbalance.
That kind of inertia takes a long time to unwind, even though the Soviet Union no longer exists, and several of those Arab League members have made permanent peace with Israel.
In conclusion, I don’t think Israel “has anything” on the United States. I think the plight of a few million stateless Palestinians is not enough to override the various realpolitik concerns that the United States has in the region.
The owners of the US are both fundamentalist protestants and Jewish, so the US and Israel are very close friends.
