In a stunning admission that reveals the depths of the Israeli lobby in Washington D.C., U.S. State Department spokeswoman Tammy Bruce declared Israel the “greatest country on Earth,” placing the United States in second place.

Bruce made the controversial remark during an interview with i24 News, effectively genuflecting to Israeli interests as she proclaimed Israel superior to the very nation she represents.

Mainstream media outlets have echoed similar sentiments, with MSNBC previously suggesting that the lives of twenty Israelis hold the same value as one thousand Americans—reinforcing a narrative of Israeli superiority over U.S. citizens.

“When twenty Israelis are killed or twenty hostages are captured, that’s like a thousand Americans,” claimed MSNBC pundit and Rt. Admiral James Stavridis, a former NATO Commander.

The MSNBC pundit followed up by comparing the death of sixty Israelis with the 9/11 attacks on America. Watch:

Meanwhile, Israel remains entirely dependent on the United States for billions in annual military and humanitarian aid, all while pressuring Washington to wage wars that serve its own regional interests.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu openly praised former U.S. President Donald Trump for launching airstrikes on Iran, applauding actions that further entangle America in Middle Eastern conflicts.

Congratulating Trump for his “bold decision” to take part in his country’s bombing campaign against the Islamic Republic, Netanyahu said “Your bold decision to target Iran’s nuclear facilities with the awesome and righteous might of the United States will change history.”

He added that it had “created a pivot of history that can help lead the Middle East and beyond to a future of prosperity and peace.”
