Coming from a very pro-Israel guy like Frum that looks more like endorsement for Malaysia having done the right thing.

Also, it is high time for the US Coastal Elites to realise that they're losing the game, and they're losing the game globally, so unless they change their strategy they're going to be in for a hard time in 10-15-20 years, because at some point the money will stop flowing in.

what does pro-Israel have to do with anything? I don't see too many nations out there courting Hamas, PIJ, Hezbollah, Muslim Brotherhood, etc as international partners and allies.

Because I tend to ignore moralizing takes coming from pro-genocide people, hence me mentioning Frum in connection with Israel.
