Subject: Re: When Bibi Goes from Power
Part of this is right - replacing Netanyahu would be unlikely to materially change Israeli policy in the short term, and probably not in the intermediate term. But it ignores the very real geopolitical reasons why we support Israel militarily. Not because we're their mule, but because it is in our interest to do so.
Thanks so much for this perceptive, reality-based summary of the central forces driving the various dynamics there. So helpful. I really appreciate it.
