It is tbh at least the decline of the west. We (germans) are not far behind the U.S. even if there is a different rethoric around in our home. Social spendings are cut, investment into renewables is cut while weapons spending increases. The strongly xenophobic narrative of our far right is willingly taken over by our “moderates” all while ignoring our complicity in the horrors perpetrated against Palestine. If we had any shreds of decency (and thus imo hope for reform) left in our society our governments should be able to put at least the tiniest amount of pressure on the israeli government. Yet we do not. Instead i have to read on our “most neutral” (tagesschau) news source that while the atrocieties are not justifiable, it is ok to continue the support of israel with weapons like atomic submarines because those might not be used against Palestinians. I am not kidding you.
