The unambiguous loser of the Iran vs Israel war is Joe Biden's Middle East policy. Any plausible continuation requires a completely different set of people, policies and approach. The former road now seems fundamentally flawed. It's not a question of waiting for things to blow over and keep going because the errors were more than tactical. The whole world view on which it was premised has gone out of date. Are we entering a period of institutional, social and technological discontinuity where the old progressive saws no longer apply? “This may be the most dangerous time the world has seen in decades,” JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon said in a statement

A dangerous time indeed. And we have a badly damaged vegetable residing in " the people's house".

Blinken just advocated for the 2 state solution, again, at his disaster press conference in Tel Aviv. He is pathetically weak and completely out of touch. While he denied it, it is likely he asked Bibi for the pause Dementia Joe wants. I don't know how we can make it to January 2025 with these idiots in charge until then.

FTA: "Is Biden prepared?" Prepared for what? His hoped for capitulation of Israel? Maybe, in a better world, it's more likely that the capitulation will be his, brought on by the straw that broke the administration's back. What straw? Maybe one or two will get past the interference being run by the MSM. This big guy should be in Leavenworth. He's almost as big a crook as LBJ.

I would argue that we are in even more danger because our elected government is NOT in control of the country, the bureaucrats are. AND the bureaucrats are supremely self interested and closed minded and not concerned about the good of the country and it's People, only themselves. That's why they are wheeling and dealing with Iran and other bad Arab players. That's why they DON'T want us to have energy independence, their Arab buddies benefit from our dependance on their oil. The bureaucrats are allowing uncontrolled illegal immigrants in an attempt to dilute the will of the American People and their votes. Meanwhile the bureaucrats look the other way when politicians are bought and get rich off of their deals. The judiciary is filled with corrupt and stupid judges that have no concern for law. They consider their opinions the ultimate law.
Even if we elect and appoint good people to government, the bureaucracy needs to treated like the Augean Stables.
With the insanity of the dem party, all this seems like a disaster in the making.

The Totalitarian Leftists in the Uniparty, working with their allies in the WEF One-World-Government anti-human thugs, screetched and howled that "Trump will crash the economy and start World War 3", and we need a "safe statesman like Joe".
Joe is an angry idiot who has never been right on international relations in his destructive 40+ years in DC, and now, with the able assistance of all of The Zero's evil minions, Soros' evil minions and the Klaus Schwab lunatics....has crashed the economy and started.....well, certainly not WW3, but emboldened the dangerous tyrants like murderous Putin and the rabid Iranian mullahs by being weak and following the paths of appeasement which has historically ALWAYS led to wars. Hitler might have been stopped after he took Czechoslovakia, had there been the sanity and will. I'm not sure whether Japan was going to stop their imperialist march for the Greater East Asia CoProsperity Sphere, but weakness certainly made it more likely they'd try to expand.
Trump was right, peace through strength and never appease vicious tyrants. Joe and those like him, have always been wrong.
Now, we MUST continue to help our allies fight stop Putin in Ukraine and Iran in Gaza. We don't want to, or need to send any American troops, but ensuring that they have the tools needed to stop these vicious, totaliarian "country stealers" as early as possible is very important.
Again....if Hitler had been strongly opposed after Czechoslovakia, he may never have invaded Poland and started WW2. Weakness in France and Britian led him to believe that he could continue without significant cost. Weakness attracts attack.

FTA: “In trying to cope the most important attributes are flexibility, information reliability, reaction time and the availability of reserve energy.”
With censorship and the arresting of people with opposing view points, information won’t be very reliable.
FTA: “ Is Biden prepared?”

Joe Biden took a working government and broke it. We Americans now have to make the decision that many real estate investors are faced with when they buy an old house, spend a lot of time and effort fixing it or tear it down and rebuild it. The US Government is at the teardown point.

We are at a dangerous inflection point with a clueless un-serious electorate and a moronic government. What could go wrong?

Adding to #5's comment:
[The Totalitarian Leftists in the Uniparty, working with their allies in the WEF One-World-Government anti-human thugs, screetched and howled that "Trump will crash the economy and start World War 3",]
The HairSniffer has crashed the economy, is doing his best to destroy the currency, and I am concerned that he and the evil people who control him will walk us into World War III with the USA energy industries shut down, the Strategic Petroleum Reserve empty, all our armaments and ammunition sent away overseas, and facing the combined forces of Russia, China and an atomic-armed Iran (The Mullahs being crazy and evil enough to actually use Atomic weapons.)
I am not yet worried, but I am concerned.
The people occupying the top tiers of our own government seem intent on destroying our nation.
I hope that they do not succeed.
