Awful. Just desperately awful.
USA + Europe have all but thrown Ukraine into the fire of hell.
Should we be surprised?
Look how Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq were all abandoned and left to clear up the mess. All the "allies" working together clearly isn't solving global problems.

We need to ask WHO DOES IT SERVE to have chaos in Middle East? Putin supports Iran; Iran supports Hamas. Iran will pull in support from Yemen, Houthis and Hezbollah in Lebanon. With the ME destabilised theres a lot of potential for Putin to sell oil and destroy Ukraine.

Putin used to be content to wipe out individuals: Litvinenko, Navalny and countless others poisoned or thrown off balconies.
Then he shot down planes.
Now he's wiping out entire nations (Ukraine) and getting other dodgy entities to do his dirty work (Iran Hezbollah Hamas Houthis)

We are all of us at risk.

On the surface it doesn't make sense why Hamas, a small violent terrorist political group, would attack civilians at a music festival of one of the most elite military countries.

However ... Hamas (Sunni) is in bed with Iran (Shiite). An oddity. But Iran will do ANYTHING to undermine Saudi (Sunni) from building closer ties between Saudi+Hamas and Saudi+Israel.
WHY?

Its always about (1) oil (2) money (3) influence and (4) Saudi trying to stay buddies with the West.
Its also about Iran wanting to stop Saudi, as a big player, making wider peace in the Arab region.

Iran wants a slice of that nice little oil-money pie and wants to stop Saudi. To that end Iran has been in bed with Russia for years. Russia + Iran buy and supply each other with arms,  minerals, intelligence and know-how.

Russia as puppeteer has A LOT to gain from war in the ME, by destabilising any  relationship that Israel might tentatively initiate with Saudi, by disrupting the flow of oil in the ME (so Russia can sell its own oil) and by pulling US into a ME war, which Biden will avoid at all costs.

Remember Biden has a loyalty to the Israeli citizens but does NOT respect or agree with Netanyahu or how he is running this conflict.

So follow the paper trail.
Hamas is supported by Iran.
Iran is  supported by Russia.
Putin is actively disrupting the ME. Putin deflects attention/money/weapons from Ukraine and the Republicans block funding for Ukraine.

Putin takes Ukraine (while the West has taken its eyes off the Ukraine ball) the biggest supplier of grain in the world.
Putin disrupts oil supply in ME and supplies Russian oil to China and any country in the global market who needs it.
Putin threatens stability in Europe via war in Ukraine and conflicts in ME.

Putin is an evil f**ker and MASSIVE problem. Trump/ MAGAs are playing like fools right into his hands.

Err yes. Hamas started this particular episode. I didn't say it didn't. Tho Netanyahu hasn't helped by attacking the charity workers and the Iranian consulate in Syria. He's a dangerous fool and Israeli citizens want him out.

On the surface it doesn't make sense why (suddenly) a small violent terrorist faux-political group would attack civilians of one of the most elite militarily countries.

However ... Hamas (Sunni) is in bed with Iran (Shiite). An oddity maybe, but Iran will do ANYTHING to undermine Saudi (Sunni) from building closer ties between Saudi+Hamas and Saudi+Israel.

Im saying Trump is incompetent, immature and diplomatically inept and volatile.

Nothing NOTHING about the situation in the ME is simple. We have Gazans (like Ukraine) existing with a neighbouring aggressor. The aggressor - Israel - is more powerful, more armed and led by a dictatorial narcissistic criminal, who's determined to wipe the minor neighbour (Gaza) out. (Ditto Ukraine vis-à-vis Russia under Putin).

The problem for USA is how do you support the citizens of Israel, whilst trying to rein in the aggressive leader who is calling the shots, who you disagree with and who Israeli citizens would now vote out? Israelis have traditionally been US allies and any POTUS would aim to protect them. And any POTUS would seek a diplomatic 2-state solution, not a protracted military conflict.

THAT is the issue on the table which Biden along with his team of advisors has to solve. Simultaneously keeping Iran from doing anything else, bc they too have a dictatorial narcissist as a leader who doesn't represent at least half of his citizens.
Is Biden more competent, diplomatically adept and mature than Trump?
Absolutely.

Are either of these two men the best presidential option for USA? Sadly no. As a non-American Im staggered that USA in 2024 Biden + Trump are the only two options in a nation of over 300 million people.

Would i want Trump leading USA with the ME potentially on the precipice of war? Resoundingly and absolutely NEVER.

So... can anyone actually picture Trump dealing competently, maturely, diplomatically with the situation btwn Israel and Iran? Instead of whining constantly about how he's under attack the same as Jesus.
