    I am surprised that Israel’s actions in Lebanon after the truce, giving Iran the excuse to keep the strait closed, have not received stronger criticism from other countries and the European Union.

    I guess the German government still can’t use the phrase “israel has done wrong” as chatgpt limitations

    There are a couple of governments in Europe with some balls and principles. Let’s hope more join the club.

      Actually I think this position would be quite popular in most countries and I expect more conservative countries to eventually realize this. It’s funny because populist parties from the far right are already aware of this before centrist conservatives do.

      Trump loves threatening other countries with the red lines he is setting up and want to be respected. All while trampling all over all those red lines set up by others and completely ignoring them without consequences. That being said, either he will not enforce consequences when someone tramples his lines or he might set a precedent for other to enforce consequences, too.

    It is really funny that the treat the US has made against Spain is to remove a large military base in either Spain or Germany. The US currently has two facilities in Spain namely some aircraft in Moron and a naval presence in Rota. Moron is a small base for the US. So the only one they might close in Spain is Rota, which is a naval base close to the Strait of Gibraltar. The US Navy will be pissed, if they loose that base.

    So the US, if the military can do anything about it, will close a base in Germany.
