That's unlikely: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-68786054 "President Joe Biden has promised Israel "ironclad" US support amid fears that Tehran could launch reprisals for an attack that killed senior Iranians." ""We're going to do all we can to protect Israel's security," he added." |
It does appear The Permanent War Party is continuing to do its thing. Yuck! |
It does appear the lovers of Hamas never learn. Yuck! |
It does appear the "everyone is Hamas" people never learn either. |
However, according to a Saudi paper we've also told Iran that “We are not Israel and Israel is the one that launched the attack.” https://www.timesofisrael.com/report-warns-iran-could-launch-major-drone-and-missile-attack-as-soon-as-friday/ |
Biden is out of touch with the people. The vast majority of people do not want to go to war with Iran and certainly not for Israel. Israel attacked Iran knowing Biden would put US lives before Israelis. Wonder how many US dead will be enough? If Israel wants to throw sucker punches from the back it is long past time to push them to the front and let them fight. |

We should not be defending war criminals, and we should be sending weapons either. Which means no support for Hamas, Hezbollah, and the governments of Syria, Israel and Iran. Did I miss anyone over there? |
Yeah. I said to a conservative acquaintance of mine that if you want to unite the country get the US moving towards involvement in another war in another Muslim country and watch Americans on all side of the political spectrum take to the streets. |
Exactly. Israel has a population of 10 million people and has a mandatory draft so that all Israelis are supposed to serve in the military. Except the ultra-orthodox are exempted so they can study in a Yeshiva. This might have been fine in 1948 when only a few hundred were exempted, but now ultra Orthodox make up more than 25% of draft age Israelis. Since they have on average 5 to 6 children, the percent of Israeli's who won't serve in the military is going to get higher and higher all while getting financial subsidies to study. It is estimated that there are over 60,000 Yeshiva students ages 18-26 who aren't in the IDF. And older ultra-orthodox all have exemptions so they aren't reservists who can be called up. Then add how many Orthodox women who don't serve while other Israeli women do. I don't understand how Israeli's on the left and center are putting up with this. No way am I supporting my sons and other American young men and women going over to get killed protecting Israel when a significant percentage of their own citizens are NOT willing to fight to defend their own country. |
This Only nato countries are afforded this protection Putinyahu is making calculated moves Israel is not US soil Let the Middle East have its own internal wars |
The only entity on your list that gets US support is Israel. And I agree, we need to stop supporting Israel. |

The Jews The Persians Intra-Slav The post Westphalian state era kinda got stale |

| Seems like things are heating up with the morning. I hope the crew is not made of nationals from poor countries. |
+1 Infact, I will go further and say that all the Israeli supporters in the U.S can go ahead and volunteer, make Ackman the first one to go. |
