Forever wars are a great way for the arms merchants to make ever more money with the end product, killed and maimed service members and shattered countries. Combine this with foreign policy errors and the track record for the US equates to 0 wins, 4 losses with loss no 5 coming up. The scoreboard. Nam, L, Iraq, L, the Iranian 1979 revolution against the Shah L and Afghanistan, L. For No. 5, the Iran war unless Israel and US do the unthinkable, involve the use of nukes.

With this in mind, there's one guy trying to do something about it and he's a Republican. :)

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) plans to reintroduce an amendment removing a provision from the Fiscal Year 2027 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that would substantially expand military technology cooperation between the United States and Israel.

The provision, which was renumbered from Section 224, would establish a United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative. It would require the defense secretary to appoint an official responsible for coordinating joint research, testing, weapons development, technology integration and industrial cooperation between the two countries.

The initiative would cover areas including missile defense, artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, cybersecurity, quantum technology, electronic warfare and weapons co-production.

Massie and Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) introduced a bipartisan amendment in June that would have removed Section 219 from the bill. Reps. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.), Jesús “Chuy” García (D-Ill.) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) later joined the proposal.

Why 219? Because of money. The House members voting for this disaster are bought and paid for by AIPAC, the most powerful lobby in the US. If the Senate approves, which they have not, the sovereignty of this once great nation will be forever shattered as it matters not what country is connected to this nation's military, it's the elimination of either country's ability to pursue it's national interest in unencumbered fashion. Washington Doctrine of Unstable Alliances says it all, entangled alliances are dangerous. 

George Washington used a passage in his farewell address to defend his foreign policy toward France.

In closing ... 

“If Section 219 is signed into law, the American people should see it
as Congress fully capitulating our nation’s autonomy to foreign influence.”  Thomas Massie, (R-KY)
