uhhh, these ones in particular seem to be, but that’s an exceedingly broad group to throw that label on. Even “Israelis” is extremely broad, though I get that that could just be a shorthand reference to their government and worst actors among their society associated.

The main draw is that Ecuador is currently in a full scale armed conflict with cartel gangs in its Western costal regions (which the gangs started very publicly), and unfortunately, it’s apparently losing. American money is already the only thing keeping the war effort funded at the moment, so some people are on board with direct military support to turn the tide as well. Obviously, we’ve seen more than enough reasons the US shouldn’t be trusted with this, but I can understand the appeal to at least some people.
