      How does a long time NATO ally not impact the west exactly? The Israel/Palestine confict has been in the news since I have paid attention to international politics.

        This entire weird conversation aside, Palestine/Israel conflict does not currently affect the West. It could hypothetically escalate until it affected the West I suppose.

        Also, Israel is not in NATO. They are a “NATO partner” but are not legally tied to the security alliance.

      I hope Russia invades your house. Not your country or neighbourhood, but just your house specifically.
