I recently asked why so many conservatives in the US are staunchly pro-Israeli, as if Israel was the 51st state of the Union (or is the Confederacy), while taking an "isolationist" position on Ukraine, a nation actually under attack by an anti-American great power (you know, Russia, Gog and Magog, whatever).
Below is a link to a particularly bizarre example of the former attitude: a virtual paean to Javier Milei, the recently elected president of Argentina, who is apparently very pro-Israeli and even Judeophile on a religio-cultural level.
Now, I do realize that Breitbart News is "broad tent", but can you imagine them to write a similar article about Ukraine?
Maybe we´re about to find out, since Milei is just as pro-Ukrainian as he is pro-Israeli. What if his next pilgrimage will be to Zelensky (a Jew) in Kyiv? Breitbart´s comments may prove instructive, I think...
