NASA leveled by Trump (www.nasa.gov)

Not only is Trump leveling science funding at NASA, like he did with the National Science Foundation, but look closely at the budget. Beginning next year at 800 million and by 2030, 3.5 billion (nearly 20% of its budget), NASA is required to work towards “Commercial Moon and Mars Infrastructure and Transportation”. The ultimate subsidy for the commercial space sector.

They also eliminated STEM engagement program, which provided funding for the next generation of scientists to participate in NASA opportunities. I can’t wait for all this greatness Trump has been preaching to arrive.

Your only argument seems to be "well there's only 50 stars on the flag, so, checkmate 😏". Israel isn't a real nation, it's just an extension of the US empire. Israel literally can not exist without US support and the US will give Israel unlimited support no matter what. They're intertwined so deeply that they can't be separated. Israel would collapse the instant the US stopped propping it up.

I repeat, it's not a real country. It was created with the stroke of a pen and will end with one. Israel's crimes are US crimes.

You don't get it yet, but I think you will. I don't even need to win this argument. History will do it for me.
