Why not Britain, why not France, why not Poland or Germany, why not the whole EU? you know a coalition of countries
Why not India or Indonesia and thier massive populations?
Most countries and coalitions don't want the hassle and headaches of being the leader of the "free" world in 2026,because they are struggling to maintain their own governments and populations.
"Leader of the free world" is just cold war-era shorthand for your nation having the largest military and economy.
The real question is "can any single country lead the world alone?"
And my answer would have to be "no" for very obvious reasons.
But now we are going down the road of the likes of a "one-world government."
Which I actually think is a good idea in the long run.
But like i have said on many occasions before.
We need to come together for the correct reasons.
And not the bankers' or 1%ers' reasons.
Which, funnily enouth are the same people who are profiting immensely from the current situation in the Middle East.
While the rest of us get bent over the proverbial barrel and shafted good and proper...
It's a sh#t show of epic proportions, no two ways about it.

And good intentions don't exempt leaders from the consequences of their actions.
If he's genuinely trying to do the right thing.
Then he should be willing to reassess the risks and knock-on effects.
I don't think Trump knows much about war.
And i also dont think he is willing to listen to those who do know the score.
Again, it's a hell of a predicament, and one that he should never have placed your nation in, imho.
Problem is, he is surrounded by his lap dog sycophants who just stroke his massive ego and don't dare to tell him anything he doesn't want to hear.
Hence why we are in the state we are.

Combine that predicament with a touch of dementia.
And thats not a cocktail any sane person wishes to partake...
Edge of a cliff material, really.

What? Seriously? He's merging the US military with the IDF?
For real?
If so, is that not treason?

When hasn't that been TPTB MO?
Been that way since Kennedy, my whole adult life, but now the autistic younger generations with shit coping skills are gonna build back better society into a utopia for all.

Yes
The United States has been completely compromised if not captured by "our greatest ally"
More and more are seeing it and we're called "antisemites" for bringing it up
