Why Ideology Is the Wrong Lens for Understanding China

Israel and the United States are Merging their Militaries. Here’s Why.

This NDAA is dangerous. Through the US-Israeli integration, it would facilitate more deadly technology, more weapons for genocide, and make it nearly impossible to sever support for Israel by the US.
