Iran - Israel/US War: Israel-US declare war on Iran, Iran responds

[BHAN85]

US allies are the western world and Israel. Rest are not "allies" even though that's what they call it. Those so called allies don't "host" US bases. US bases are forced on them. They don't have a choice but to accept it. Do you think Qatar can ask US to leave? Its next to impossible.

If you are a ruler of a tiny oil rich nation, saying no to US Hegemony means ending your rule Or bringing chaos to your country. The bases in those countries were never meant to protect these countries from onset. Those bases were meant to protect US interests and US hegemony. The primary objective of those bases is US interests. One of the main US interest is making money from oil rich region. US presence means US can extort these countries like anything which it does. These countries export oil, make money, US then extorts money by forcing these countries to invest billions in US or buy downgraded expensive weaponry from US manufacturers. US will lose this leverage if it leaves the bases.

Do you think Germany can ask USA to leave?, they are militarily occupied since WW2.

Anyway, times have changed. USA calls it "full spectrum dominance".

We dont know exactly how, but "allies" obey USA even in the most stupid self damaging ways.
Clearly visible in Europe with Ukraine war, and in Middle East with Iran war.

But judging vassals leaders behavior, it doesnt seem a hard blackmail, it seems more a sweet bribing, more carrot than stick in most of cases.

Awkward I’m guessing Israel didn’t care for something and these are the guys defending Israel with weapons confiscated from smugglers going Hezbollah well I guess when you don’t respond it gives Israel a free pass maybe they will “accidentally” harm Turkish troops I wonder if the Mecca agreement will come into effect
