• Israel is deranged and has the strongest military in the middle east atm, and nukes
• The US has its navy on every major trade route
• Europe’s biggest members are all still aligned with Israel.

Basically Any nation attempting to jettison Israel would be devastated in multiple fashions, so none of them wants to start a large-scale fight.

He’s currently trying to get a 51st state (Canada would need to be at least 6 or more, in all honesty), but it looks like he’s at risk of losing some states from where I’m sitting.

This whole thing reads not like a codebase versus, but a traditional engineering approach (don’t act like you can patch this once you release it - get it done so it’s stable the first time) versus the more modern “move fast and break things” approach.

This is just the start, and will likely involve the West bank next. After that, it’s likely that Israel will attempt expanding into its neighbors.

And it’s not just to get some old dudes even richer - it’s also to further crush the ability of the middle east to rebel or obtain meaningful autonomy.
