    Material exchange is material support. You can tell by the fact that they don’t do that with NATOs enemies.

    China and the US are now best buddies, apparently.

    I want you to imagine a world where Israel is treated like Iran, except it doesn’t even have support from Russia or China either.

    Okay. It looks rather like the world today, except Israel is even more virulently far-right and militarized, like North Korea.

    Not if I make it count. The Arab Spring comes to mind.

    That has nothing to do with what I said.
