This is to give a "reason" why markets drop soon, which was already happening (just like in Covid). Also, it's to pay all the military industrial complex and bankers, who will inflate all around the world, helping their fake money game continue - for now.

Why is the Gaza war in America's national interest?

It isn't.
Protecting Israel is, without a doubt.
The UN General Assembly on Friday voted in favour of an immediate truce in Gaza. There were 120 votes in favour, 14 against and 45 abstentions.

The world is either opposed to Israel or indifferent.

Only 14 countries support Israel now.
It doesn't matter, even if we're the only ones. Giving up a core ally after it's been attacked would set an ominous precedent for Taiwan and then everyone else.

When the electrical grids go down, getting water and food to all the people will be quite a task. From now until then is getting closer by the day. Frighteningly close. From then until water, food and everything resembling modern society is gone will be frighteningly fast. Read Navigator's book for an idea of what to expect. Next year will make it clear.

This is World War 1 levels of build up and danger.

No one is even trying to de-escalate the situation.

Why is that?

The answer is to be found in generational theory. I am not going to repeat this here since you can read it up for yourself

It's a theory, not a law.

People have decided to have a nuclear war?

The Israeli consulate in Puerto Rico (didn't know they had one there) is under attack by a violent mob right now.

Biden can kiss the PR vote off too.
Yeah, I'm sure that on your cousin's Telegram Puerto Rico is burning right now. A revolution is sweeping the whole island because Biden supported Israel.
Meanwhile, on the real world, no one give a damn.

If America had sat idle in WW1 there would have been no WW2.
Not clear. If imperial overstretch worked and profited countries, it would likely have been tried again. Containment is about making sure it doesn't work.
A negotiated peace instead of the travesty of Versailles, would have meant no Hitler.
This is incorrect. If America had sat idle in WW1, the Germans would have won. Militarists in Germany would have had complete control of the country, and the preparations for WW2 would have FAR exceeded what Hitler did prior to 1939.

Let me explain.

The French Army mutinied in 1917. Shortly after America entered the war, partly because Americans weren't arriving fast enough. When the Germans finished off the Russians in 1917, and signed a separate peace with them, they redeployed all their Eastern Front forces to the West. Their 1918 offensive in the West was hurried, as they were trying to knock out France and Great Britain before the arrival of masses of American troops. As it was, they did manage to break through British defenses and then French defenses in the spring of 1918. In the latter thrust against the French Army, only the intervention of Americans, launching near suicidal counter attacks, stopped the Germans.

Without America in the war, and the hope of masses of American troops getting to the front in France, the French Army could well have given up in 1917 or early 1918. If they had not yet surrendered, the Germans could have taken more time to prepare their 1918 offensives, and attacked in April/May, rather than a month earlier. The collapse of either the British or French fronts could not have been plugged by the redistribution of Allied troops, as there would have been no American troops to act as a replacements, or as a strategic reserve.

In addition, the Uboat campaign against Britain was far more successful in WW1 than it was in WW2. The British had no real weapons or tactics in WW1 to successfully deal with Uboats. It was only the insistence of the AMERICAN admiral Sims that led to the adoption of the convoy system that saved Britain in 1918. With America on the sidelines, they would not have made this change, nor would they have the additional shipping available to them that America provided.

A negotiated peace with Germany victorious on the battlefield would have left the Kaiser on his throne, but with militarists like Ludendorff actually running things (as he was late war). Germany would have not been reduced to a 100,000 man army, instead it would have maintained millions under arms. It would have demilitarized France, and then started an even bigger naval program with which to finish off Britain in the next war. It would also have intervened directly in the Russian Civil War with large armies (not just the pathetic Friekorps of volunteers that went there on their own after the war), and would have turned much of what became the Soviet Union into satellite German States, with a weak Russia.

This would have meant a WW2 (a certainty given the militaristic culture of the time, with militarists controlling the Kaiser) with a vastly larger German Army than Hitler had, no USSR (but instead satellite states providing resources and troops), a huge German Navy, and not even a speed bump French Army to slow them down.

Any idea that American Isolationism would have been, or would be a good idea is naive wishful thinking in the extreme.

America has saved the world twice already, and is about to be called on to do it the third time.

America is not accelerating this. But It would if it retreated into Isolationism.

The "Bad Guys" are coming. Putting your possessions on the front yard and retreating into your house is not going to save you. They want your house too (and for you to be dead).

Germany was exhausted. Austro-Hungary was exhausted. They negotiated peace would not have meant a German victory.

I'm not going to fight in another war(I've fought in two--infantry). I don't know anyone willing to fight, and most of my friends are x-military. And they don't want their children fighting.

However, I'm willing to fight in a civil war.

Draft the illegals.
