Anyone who thinks Israel is somehow a friend of Christians in the holy land is gravely mistaken. The Israeli state frequently suppresses Christian gatherings. It attacked the only Catholic parish in Gaza. The delusion of the American Evangelical movement that somehow Israel is some sort of ally of Christians is amazingly self-defeating.

Very interesting read. The Suez moment had a new protagonist in the wings ready to take over global hegemony (the US). For the parallel to be exact, China would need to make its desire plain vis a vis Hormuz. It would be a massive Earthquake if China put pressure on the US to stop the escalations, because I think it would work.

I thought the war was already won with complete decimation of the enemy though.
