Putin is helping Hamas to hurt the West
Sadre - help me explain something from your world view. I agree the US has unipolar influence in the ME compared with China. That said wouldn't Russia want Hamas to attack Israel like it did. If ME gets hot then Iran and Hezbolah get involved. This involves the US which creates two fronts for us.
Is the US getting drawn into engagements that could devolve past our point of being able to handle them? Janet Yellen recently publicly said USA can afford both Israel's war and Ukraine's war simulateously.
