To be honest, I don’t think the article makes its case very well. I think Netanyahu is just doing Netanyahu things, and the impact of the current regional war on the US presidential election is pretty far from his mind. It lists some examples from the past which are interesting, but it doesn’t draw any type of solid connection between the current war and the US election. It’s reaching.
I do agree with you that anyone in US politics who is expecting Netanyahu to do them any favors or be responsible with the US or Israel’s best interests, hasn’t been paying attention for years.
Somebody told me that the robot moderator is susceptible to vote-rigging, and with my blessing they’re giving me hundreds of downvotes to try to get me banned from my own community. I don’t think it is going to work, but it’s useful as an experiment.
It’s clearly well beyond the point of what would work in real life, since the admins would notice and ban the attempt, as they have some more subtle vote-rigging efforts in the past. I think that, even in the world in which you could get away with giving out hundreds of automated downvotes without someone noticing, this kind of thing wouldn’t work, but I have been wrong before.

Why such a heavy downvote?
