This is exactly like getting into a huge bar brawl because you have a cockly little friend who can't keep his mouth shut and he knows you will back him up.

On top of this, Israel bombed Beirut in Lebanon, and Netanyahu is signaling that Turkey is an imminent threat to the existence of Israel. Netanyahu has already proclaimed Pakistan as a threat in the past as well.

The wars won't just end with Israel dragging us into conflict with Iran.

It’s a perfect opportunity to leave the region. Our bases are gone. Let Israel fend for itself

THIS. Hasbarist trolls always pretend they’re swinging large, bragging about Israeli military might and strategic genius and technological supremacy. Why on Earth should our country, which does not offer anything like the safety net enjoyed by a citizen in Tel Aviv, get in the way of this one-man show?

Who can justify any US citizen service member - especially understanding that most young men and women join to get some kind of future employment or educational opportunity - dying for another saber-rattling country? What sense does it make? How can anyone say this is in our best interest?

Everything Trump touches dies...

The International Monetary Fund warned on Tuesday that the war with Iran could darken the global economic outlook if a prolonged regional conflict caused energy prices to spike.

A senior fund official, Dan Katz, said that the war could be “very impactful on the global economy across a range of metrics,” pointing to inflation and economic growth. Oil and gas prices surged over the last 48 hours since the United States and Israel attacked Iran amid fears about disruptions to global energy supplies.

“The persistence of the conflict in particular is going to drive most of the impact,” said Mr. Katz, who assumed the No. 2 role at the monetary fund late last year after serving as chief of staff to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

Trump: "I have ordered the US Development Finance Corporation (DFC) to provide political risk insurance and guarantees for the Financial Security of ALL Maritime Trade through Gulf. This will be available to all Shipping Lines. If necessary, the Navy will begin escorting tankers through the Strait"

Translation I WILL SPARE NO TAXPAYER DOLLAR TO MAKE SURE THAT I DONT HAVE TO ADMIT THAT I WAS WRONG BECAUSE I DONT WANT TO BE IN TROUBLE WITH MY OWNERS.

Anyone who is supportive of tethering American interests to the interests of the State of Israel (and effectively subordinating those American Interests to the interests of the State of Israel) poses an existential threat to the United States of America.

Everything goes through that lens moving forward.

The US is really desperate.trump is dragging us down. Apparently trump called Iraqis and asked them to fight Iran for him. The shamelessness would be hilarious if it wasnt tragic

This has to be pure mental illness/dementia. How can someone conduct a war like this with no plan? Now he’s scrambling

That’s insane. Congress needs to tell him no. A clear unambiguous no. Taxpayers cannot cover political risk in the Gulf ever. And definitely not in the middle of a hot war.

Considering ISIS is trained, funded and armed by the US/Israel, it's not beyond reality.

How long do we have to invade all these countries to please a never satisfied and never safe Israel?

Just need to take care of Turkey, Yemen and Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and then Israel will be satisfied. Hopefully, Israel can then accept a "Greater Israel" rather than the "Greatest Israel"
