I think it's obvious at this point that, his stance is the main reason for their decline. Israel's apparent breach of the peace agreement with Palestine for a more tactical advantage in taking over Rafah, resulting in further conflict, reveals their negative role (putting it very lightly) even to the strongest supporters. I was kind of hoping that even Ethan would address this. I have no idea why I thought he might. Since they were talking about Star Wars, it's like watching the sequel movies and seeing all your favorite characters story lines turn to dog shit but you keep watching, hoping that it somehow gets better. Spoiler.. it doesn't and Ethan straight up Leia Poppins his way back into the "ship" each and every time.
