No it’s not.
I should not have posted what I said.
100% my fault.

They just ignore it instead of even trying to twist into a pretzel to explain how it happened under the previous administration.
Just making the point that the Middle East is a big mess. Always has been, seems it always will be. Administrations will change, but the Middle East won’t. Right now we can support Israel and Jordan, try to mitigate some of the damage Iran causes via Hezbollah in Syria and Lebanon. That’s it. We tried to fix Iraq and Afghanistan, and we know what happened there. Some things never change.

So as of now it does look like most everything is going down with minimal Israeli/Western casualties or even impacts. Hopefully Israel takes the W of offing the Iranian generals in the embassy with minimal reprecussions and don’t expand the retaliation in a huge way. I’d like to see just a solid bombing of Hezbollah and friends that were basically already on the blow then up list.
Or if they want to make a point and actually be helpful go ahead and blow up the drone factory. Because that hurts Iran and Putin. So Bibi won’t do that.

Didn’t Israel fire at Iran first

Tough situation
No. Iran’s proxies Drew first blood

Not going down this path again because it’s pointless. All we have is what’s happening now,
If US supports Israel in retaliation (boots on ground), it’s going to get messy considering the US has repeatedly asked for a ceasefire
Right now, Israel is in a bit of a PR crisis
Take out Iran’s oil export capabilities and it ends quickly

And risk China getting involved, possibly cutting off trade with US or issuing sanctions?
Glad you’re not in charge of foreign policy lol

I don’t think there’s too much to worry about boots on ground wise. I think we’ll issue a good old fashioned “statement of support” while also telling Bibi “You do you bro. But leave us out of it”

Well that’s pretty much all he can say at least until Election Day
Choosing his words carefully, not showing direct support for Israel’s actions but saying enough to not completely disown the relationship
If it was 2004, Marines and Soldiers would already be in Iran right now
You wear quite an anti-Israel foil hat. You probably think the October attacks were Netanyahu’s decision, too.

having this opinion is equally as bad as the people who think the Israel-Palestine conflict began on October 6 2023

They hit their “embassy” in Syria, that killed top Iranian military personnel. They knew it was a farce and it was actually where Iran was coordinating military operations from. Israel said enough of this charade and bombed it.

This has always been the key. It worked for four years.
Why did it work?
Yes siree. An interesting move for Israel to make would be to take out another Iranian dictator’s high ranked officer.
Gotta have some…
