Aside from the fact that those fires were started and had gasoline poured onto them by the last guy, we can remove Israel right from it. Regardless of what any of us think of the Israel/Palestinian conflict, it is not our war. We give Israel lots of money each year, true, but there is nothing in our law that requires us to do anything. With Israelis themselves divided on the right course of action, it is not for us to intervene yet again in another country’s internal wars. We rarely make things better when we do.
As for gas shortage — a temporary blip that is essentially over and pointed to the willful wrecking of — or at the very least disinterest in — our cyber security by the previous administration.
As for the border “crisis” — we made that ourselves long ago. We continue to exacerbate it daily. One reason those people are fleeing their homes in fear for their lives is the abominable violence. And almost without exception all those high-powered weapons which gangs like MS-13 use are coming from the US. They find it ridiculously easy to buy weapons here and transport them back. So we are responsible for taking care of the people we ourselves have helped drive from their homes.
