US Won’t Help Americans Stranded in Middle East

Americans are trapped across the Middle East and their own government can't figure out how to help them. But the US embassy in Israel told citizens to leave, but then also added, it's not in the position to evacuate or directly assist Americans in departing.

And a very similar message was given out by 14 embassies across the region. Though after the backlash, you had Trump's government doing a 180 and saying that it would help and telling Americans to sign up on a website. generic messages with no real information about how to actually get out. And it feels crazier when you compare it right before the 2003 invasion of Iraq, Americans

in the region were warned weeks in advance. But this time they were told right before the strikes or after. We spend nearly a trillion dollars a year on defense and we give Israel $4 billion on top of that. And you have MTG calling it a betrayal that we fund Israel's military but can't evacuate And you have MTG calling it a betrayal that we fund Israel's military but can't evacuate

our own citizens.
