In the view of some analysts, #allies' unwillingness reflects not only their reluctance over entanglement in a war they were not consulted on, but a backlash against his belittling of traditional #US #alliances since his return to office 14 months ago [ya think?].

"But this isn’t a simple strategic miscalculation ... it’s the result of a particular #ideological #fantasy of #American #independence from foreign #alliances, 1 that is oblivious to how those alliances long served American interests" www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

War in Iran, chaos in the Gulf, repression in the west: and the thread that binds them all is Palestine | Nesrine Malik In the Middle East, the occupation is the original sin. And those who banked on this US-backed ‘stability’ now find it giving way beneath them, says Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik
