Oh no doubt. But no country gets the kind of unwavering support Israel does. For a proxy, they do seem to be able to get away with a lot that I've seen no other country do. And it's not just America but more or less every western nation. I know a big chunk of it is lobbying, but that only gets you so far. I feel as if they have a lot of dirt on a lot of politicians around the world.

Third party votes are protest votes in a sense. They'll still be there, they'll just protest in other ways.

members of the security services and who have stolen personal information on politicians, including Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and public figures, to be used for extortion.

Something tells me Israel does this a lot and is a big factor why they receive such unconditional support from a lot of countries.

Opinion of what exactly?

Ah that's my bad. My point still stands though. It's not like he was able to convince everyone to become Protestant.

They can't even hold Israel back currently.

No pope has ever had the power to change everyone's mind with a single word or speech. That's never been a thing.

They know. They just don't care. They would rather have the attitude of "What are your choices? Vote for us even as we kill your people" rather than try to understand where she's coming from.

MLK definitely did not change everyone's opinion. A lot of people? Sure. Everyone? Absolutely not.
