In short it was meant to supply aid to underdeveloped nations, promote positive ideas like democracy and republicanism and also counteract the KGB since it was created by Kennedy during the Cold War (road to hell is paved in good intentions)

It became a bloated monstrosity that was used by leftists to promote globohomo all over the world and also use tax payer money to topple governments that didn't align with the globohomo agenda

They give money to guys like this:


So they can, in turn, give money to guys like this:


I shit you not.


A former U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) official founded and worked for a controversial organization benefiting from USAID funds while he continued to receive six-figure paychecks from his USAID job, potentially running afoul of ethics laws, according to documents obtained by U.S. Right to Know.

Emerging Pandemic Threats Division director Dennis Carroll went on to lead the organization — an ambitious, expensive and potentially dangerous endeavor called the Global Virome Project (GVP). Carroll is now the group’s chair.

The Global Virome Project (GVP) is an American-led international collaborative research initiative based at the One Health Institute at the University of California, Davis.[1][2] The project was co-launched by EcoHealth Alliance president Peter Daszak, Nathan Wolfe and Edward Rubin of Metabiota, and former Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention director George F. Gao.[3]

Y'know... I'm weirdly okay with Gaza being controlled by the USA. That's a statement I never once thought would come out of my mouth, but here we are. It's not like it would be that far out of line with other solutions "offered." Egypt, Jordan, the UAE, and the KSA are all more or less bankrolled and defended by the USA, and they're the ones who are at the forefront of negotiations on behalf of the Palestinians.

They won't take the Palestinians and the Palestinians won't want to leave. These fuckers destroyed a luxury hotel and a fresh water infrastructure so they could make jerry rigged rockets to shoot at Israel.

There is only one solution to the Palestinian question...and it needs to be Final.

Trump standing next to Netanyahu: "I also believe that the Gaza Strip, which has been a symbol of death and destruction for so many decades ... it should not go through a process of rebuilding and occupation by the same people."

Trump: "The US will take over the Gaza Strip."

So, uh, regardless of your stance on this, can we please appreciate two items;

1. Didn't we vote for Trump to get us out of shit like this and not to waste American money on resources of things like an foreign occupation in the Middle East?

2. Wonder what going through the minds of all those liberal and Arab voters who protest voted against Kamala or abstained all together over her being too supportive of Israel?

Setting aside the fact that America is beginning yet another occupation in the Middle East, it would all be pretty funny

This is clickbait bullshit. This is no different than the buyout that is being offered to ALL federal workers. It has nothing to do specifically with the CIA.

The previous offer did not go out to those working in intelligence agencies, so it was news that the offer has now been made to those working at the CIA.

Trump's plan is probably the best and only hope for peace in Palestine and the only hope for those people.

Some Palestinians may welcome and embrace a final solution. But others that have dead family members and relatives won't be so quick to let go of killing jews.

1. Occupation didn't work for changing Afghanistan. Their old ways reasserted themselves the second the US left.
2. There will always be radicals.
3. It would only be a fit resort destination for other muslims. They are too conservative muslim to cater to a Western cliental. Other muslims hate the Palestinians. They think that they are all backward and stupid. That is saying something when even Mideastern muslims think that you are backward and stupid.
4. This falls apart as soon as Republicans are out of office. Democrats will immediately allow all of the Palestinians to freely travel and take up residency in the US, just like Puerto Rico. This will further increase the muslimification of the US. We are screwed.

Do you know that never-fucking-ending conflict that exists in the middle east? The same one we involved ourselves in for 20 fucking years resolving pretty much nothing, leaving it actually worse than we went into it and to the tune of $8 trillion dollars wherein we abandoned most of our investments and killed 900,000 people? Yeah, the people actually fucking hated us relative to their own dictator to the point where they'd sacrifice themselves to blow up trucks. That thing? The gay proxy war we fought?

Yeah bro we should get involved in that again it's a smart idea fuck yeah guys. It is 100% a great idea to get the U.S government involved in highly religious areas of contention, no way that could go wrong, no way that could lead to 9/11. I'm so hyped bros.

From the latest exec order
The Iranian Government, including the IRGC, is using agents and cyber-enabled means to target United States nationals living in the United States and other countries around the world for attacks, including assault, kidnapping, and murder. Iran has also directed its proxy groups, including Hezbollah’s Islamic Jihad Organization, to embed sleeper cells in the Homeland to be activated in support of this terrorist activity.

So is Trump trying reestablish the Kingdom of Jerusalem? Trump is a modern day crusader king?

Realistically my guess is that Trump is doing another Big Ask and using some shock and awe by asking for something so big and wild that not even the person he is asking for it has a good counter.

The Jews may want to use Americans to purge Arabs all day long but not at the cost of Americans having an actual claim to some land in their territory. Bibi may smile and nod right now but I think this creates a big dilemma for him, Israel wasn't blind to the way America's presence in the middle east started with some air bases and helpful control of a situation that escalated to air superiority and invasion.

But they can't openly say no right now because they need Trump to continue covering their backs and they know that Trump has now made it so that if the Dems ever got in without him cooperating with Trump on this they could decide to go the reverse to spite Trump and Israel.

So Bibi is left waiting for Trump to get to what he really wants, which is hard to guess at this point. The US taking Gaza isn't really in either the US or Israels interests and both parties know it, the question is what each is really gaming for.
