    The problem with subtext is that I can’t tell if they’re talking about Israel, or if they’re a neocon ghoul who wants to nuke Iran. Or the US? Or Russia? The political content is completely lost in the subtext

      The subtext does make it clear enough that it’s Israel because there is no other country that is acting as a rabid dog that belongs to someone else.

      To be fair “rabid dog” doesn’t narrow it down much in the US
