A Turkish-left take arguing that deepening US-Israel military ties is dangerous, framed as bad news for American sovereignty and taxpayers.

• A resurfaced clip suggests Israeli officials on October 7th were willing to kill their own hostages to deny Hamas leverage, tied to the so-called Hannibal directive.
• The bigger worry is proposals in Washington to merge US and Israeli militaries and intelligence agencies, like Tom Cotton's push to link the CIA and Mossad.
• A Netanyahu speech framing Jews versus "Rome" is read as pointing at America, raising fears Israel could turn shared military tech against the US.
• Both parties are blamed for staying silent, with only Ro Khanna, Thomas Massie, Rashida Tlaib, and AOC named as pushing back before getting blocked.

Outlook: Efforts to restrict weapons or deepen ties will keep colliding in Congress, with little sign the merger proposals or the silence around them change soon.
