The striking parallels between Israel and the United States reveal an alarming trend in today's democracies. How do we understand such parallels, especially as they fit within a larger framework of anti-democratic and authoritarian movements around the world? And what is the path back from the brink? That's today's topic in #TheBigPicture. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/netanyahu-trump-strongman-israel-weaker

  Strongman Leaders Are Making Us Weaker
  
  from Jay Kuo
  
  There are parallel crises playing out in two of the world’s democracies: in Israel, still reeling from the Hamas terror attack and now embroiled in a war in Gaza, and in the United States, where political paralysis and sabotage have left the nation vulnerable and unprepared to deal with escalating crises.

  TBH, am sick of rump being called "strongman." I get it, BUT, it only serves to reinforce his own propaganda. He is lying, self-serving, narcissistic conman. The opposite of strong. He hides behind others who do his dirty work. A puxxy wimp grifter.
