@Ghislaine Definitely not projecting confidence here. "Not Marco Rubio" seems like a safe bet for 2028 POTUS.
@AmericanChampion honestly seems like Iranβs policy of just shoot everybody bit them here. sounds like it gave Israel a way to make Iran definitely shoot at America and drag us into a preemptive strike.
@Ghislaine IIRC it was Israel attacks Iran -> US attacks Iran -> Iran attacks regional US bases and Israel. I don't think they had any option that would've avoided these attacks.
@AmericanChampion Yeah I mean if it was going to be Israel attacks Iran -> Iran bombs the shit out of everyone including us, they made it rational to attack them just to prevent damage
@Ghislaine I think that's fairly tortured logic, at its best. Supposing a miracle had happened and America had left Israel high and dry, I think Iran would've held off on targeting American assets.
Even so, if the best justification for attacking a country is that it might've lashed out if our millstone of an 'ally' attacked it, the smart call is to cut Israel loose rather than to bail them out. The fact that the administration is down to stuff like this indicates that pretty much everyone knows it was a bad idea, which is a good sign.

We brought a carrier group over there and everyone knew it if we didn't do all the sgit leading up to this and Israel had the balls to go solo yea sure
