There's a lot of very nasty, bad-faith arguments in this thread, and you seem to be involved in almost all of them. It is time to take a step back and consider what this kind of derailing does to the quality of discussion overall.

The point is obvious to anyone even tangentially following the israel-palestine conflict: Israel is a close ally to the us and heavily supported by them in their brutal occupation of Palestine.

Lol okay downvote but it's relevant and true.

CIA helped in getting Lumumba and wanted to put a halt to his movement. They along with Belgian officers even tried killing him by poisoning his toothpaste.

CIA overthrew Mosaddegh in Iran which lead to where they are today in terms of an oppresive theocratic government.

And US military and CIA are acting as world police in Somalia.
