Rubio says US is Israel's puppet

Unless you have a subscription with the Times, you can't access any link. So JohnD usually copies a lot of the original article, so that you can read it without the subscription.
OR... he could read the article in the Garundia which has the gist.
 
So “ Rubio says US is Israel's puppet” is a lie?
Paraphrasing someone is not inherently lying.

However when you change someone's words to mean something they didn't say, like accusing someone of ant-Semitism for hating Jews, when their actual words were criticising Israel, that would be lying.
 
Iranian govt were horrible people who persecuted their own people. But there are plenty of other similar countries.

Israel will volunteer to be "peacekeepers". They'll take over Iran. Then set up outposts, then establish apartheid, where muslims are kept controlled, all using the excuse of security. They'll continually deny they want to take ownership, they'll claim it's all a military operation for everyone's safety. Eventually they'll force most out then bomb the rest. The same will happen with Lebanon.

Meanwhile the USA will take all the oil.

They're all terrible, nobody is the good guy.

Many posters start a new thread with a title putting their own spin on a situation. You're being rather silly.

The important issue, discussed in several newspapers, is whether Trump was bounced into this war by Netanyahu.
 
One of the most interesting aspects of all this is the way Trump is hardly engaging with the war in public. It's like he's pretending it's no big deal. Even though it is dominating news coverage around the world. And the administration as a whole is refusing to give the usual regular updates on the war. At Trump's press conference yesterday, he spent more time talking about his curtains and the new ballroom.

He is reassuring the American public that they have enough weapons available. :oops:
But the actual words used tend to be altered slightly depending on the source:

Trump says US munition stockpiles ‘never been higher,’ enough weapons to fight ‘forever’​


Trump says U.S. 'not where we want to be' on highest end weapon stockpiles​


Could the US run low on weapons for its assault on Iran?​


Or is it just a ploy, to pull back early, or to dissuade the Israelis to not expand the war, or to wrong foot the Iranians?
