Donald Richardson, an axis is an imaginary line around which a body rotates. Israel is not part of that body, it is an outlier and stands alone, as does Netanyahu, he as is Trump are their own axis of evil., Iran, North Korea, Russia another. China is in and out, they play thejr own game. there is more than one "axis of evil". You might include India, because Russia is selling cheap oil to India, and thus enabling Putin in his attack on Ukraine.
Simplistic thinking, thanks to George W Bush, who coined the term Axis of Evil, or was that Bolton, it doesn't matter. Bush owned is a simplistic and stupid way of looking at the world.
Here is food for thought, modern technological industrial society is highly dependent on rare earth metals and natural resources, much of which is produced in Africa, and guess who is becoming persona non grata and kicked out of Africa? The US or A and guess who is being welcomed and invited in?Russia and China. Russia and China aren't belabored with human rights, greenies and lefties like America. The will finance, fund, militarily support any tin pot dictator that will provide them access to natural resources and strategic pots.
The Biden administration welcomed that reality when it invited and feted the President of Kenya to the White House and for that Biden has caught grief.
We have greened America by exporting factories to Mexico and Asia, and jobs along with it, now lets give Africa and it's resources to Russia and China, and we can sit back while they black mail and starve us with vital resources.
Nobody thinks things through to their logical conclusion, it is all emotion, all of the time. Emotion vrs Greed. What a world I have to live in.
Obama, as a young Senator, addressed exactly that issue in a speech he gave on foreign policy. He was brilliant and informed on how important Africa would become strategically. He of course was ignored.
I personally like Obama, and consider him a decent man, but he was naive and unconnected as he entered the oval office, and was pounced on and taken advantage of by the likes of Larry Summers and his henchman Rahm Emanuel.
And he was right about the importance of Africa, and yes he was ignored. It was George W Bush that created AfriCom (African Command), but penny pinching Republicans have ceded influence to Russia and China. Now African nations are kicking us out, partly because we have backed the establishment in the nations, even when they are oppressing and murdering their own people.
China has made a substantial financial investment, building infrastructure, Russia has supplied mercenaries to bolster regimes, and weapons for insurgents.
America because of "morality" and politics can only sit back and watch.
