Sorry, this is not our problem.

I agree with all the comments saying it's time for Israeli supporters to step up to the plate. You want to push the U.S. into yet another conflict in the ME? Why don't you start with your own children. Let's see you send your sons and daughters to fight in a new war.

No excuses necessary. We see you.

Our ground troops, marines, and US cruise ships are already there on the Mediterranean and Red Sea protecting Israel.

Unlike most of the world, They didn’t send one troop to us post 9/11 even for the Iraq war that they /Netanyahu wanted.

Why do we protect them militarily when they don’t do anything to back us up militarily ?

In that situation probably they were asked not to get involved for good reason.

Throughout the war US president George H. W. Bush did his utmost to keep Israel from responding. US deputy secretary of state Larry Eagleburger and undersecretary of defense Paul Wolfowitz arrived in Israel four days before the aerial bombing of Iraq began, on a mission to convince us not to launch a preemptive attack and to stay out of the war. They assured us that the US armed forces would within days eliminate the danger of Scud attacks against Israel, while Israeli participation might well lead to a break-up of the coalition and ensuing difficulties. Should the US not be successful in eliminating the Scud threat to Israel, they said, the US would acquiesce to an Israeli response.

As it turned out, all American attempts to hit the Scud launchers failed, and throughout the war Scuds kept falling on Israel. Raytheon Patriot anti-aircraft missiles sent to Israel by the US, despite a number of attempts, failed to intercept a single Scud. Nevertheless, Bush in almost daily calls to prime minister Yitzhak Shamir urged him to keep Israel out of the war despite Iraqi “provocations.”

So not an ally but a problem? Surely Israel could have kicked in 100k ground troops, let the US base forces out of Israel or at least helped in a minor way?

The question is why should the US protect Israel when Israel is clearly the aggressor? What Israel did was an act of war. We have no obligation to fight for Israel specially when Israel is the one attacking another country. This is a bridge too far.

October 7th was carried out by Hamas - which is the recognized government of Gaza. Thus, Gaza invaded Israel on October 7th and Israel has responded in kind. The current protests against Israel seem to be focusing only on Israel's response and fail to explain why Hamas invaded Israel on October 7th and took hostages back to Gaza.

This is about Iran. Israel attacked their Consulate in Syria last week. Iran has now responded. Bibi started this crap.

So it's ok to respond when someone attacks you? To hell with the collateral damage. Sounds familiar 🤣😵‍💫

Hamas “invaded” Israel because they are sick and tired of living under decades of a brutal Israeli occupation.

So applying your logic, since Israel attacked Iran, Iran can respond in kind.

Israel is the eyes and ears of the Middle East. They have the best intelligence services in the world. They back us up in ways you'll never know.

If you continue to tell the lie, eventually people will begin to believe it is the truth. This intelligence agency gave us weapons of mass destruction and a nine-year war and trillions of dollars in debt that our great-grandchildren will be paying off.

Nope. Iran used its proxies to attack Israel. Those proxies have found out the hard way that doing so was a bad idea. Iran is beginning to find out the same thing - which is why it is now trying to avoid such a fate through a statement posted to the UN:

"... Iran’s military action was in response to the Zionist regime’s aggression against our diplomatic premises in Damascus. The matter can be deemed concluded. However, should the Israeli regime make another mistake, Iran’s response will be considerably more severe. It is a conflict between Iran and the rogue Israeli regime, from which the U.S. MUST STAY AWAY."

Throughout the war US president George H. W. Bush did his utmost to keep Israel from responding. US deputy secretary of state Larry Eagleburger and undersecretary of defense Paul Wolfowitz arrived in Israel four days before the aerial bombing of Iraq began, on a mission to convince us not to launch a preemptive attack and to stay out of the war. They assured us that the US armed forces would within days eliminate the danger of Scud attacks against Israel, while Israeli participation might well lead to a break-up of the coalition and ensuing difficulties. Should the US not be successful in eliminating the Scud threat to Israel, they said, the US would acquiesce to an Israeli response.

As it turned out, all American attempts to hit the Scud launchers failed, and throughout the war Scuds kept falling on Israel. Raytheon Patriot anti-aircraft missiles sent to Israel by the US, despite a number of attempts, failed to intercept a single Scud. Nevertheless, Bush in almost daily calls to prime minister Yitzhak Shamir urged him to keep Israel out of the war despite Iraqi “provocations.”

So not an ally but a problem? Surely Israel could have kicked in 100k ground troops, let the US base forces out of Israel or at least helped in a minor way?

The question is why should the US protect Israel when Israel is clearly the aggressor? What Israel did was an act of war. We have no obligation to fight for Israel specially when Israel is the one attacking another country. This is a bridge too far.

October 7th was carried out by Hamas - which is the recognized government of Gaza. Thus, Gaza invaded Israel on October 7th and Israel has responded in kind. The current protests against Israel seem to be focusing only on Israel's response and fail to explain why Hamas invaded Israel on October 7th and took hostages back to Gaza.

Hamas “invaded” Israel because they are sick and tired of living under decades of a brutal Israeli occupation.

Nope. They're evil psychopaths. That's all.

Sure, I guess if your land is stolen, your people are killed with impunity and when you try to fight back you’re labeled a “terrorist”, yes, that would drive you to become an “evil psychopath.”

Sorry, this is not our problem.

I agree with all the comments saying it's time for Israeli supporters to step up to the plate. You want to push the U.S. into yet another conflict in the ME? Why don't you start with your own children. Let's see you send your sons and daughters to fight in a new war.

No excuses necessary. We see you.

Our ground troops, marines, and US cruise ships are already there on the Mediterranean and Red Sea protecting Israel.

Unlike most of the world, They didn’t send one troop to us post 9/11 even for the Iraq war that they /Netanyahu wanted.

Why do we protect them militarily when they don’t do anything to back us up militarily ?

In that situation probably they were asked not to get involved for good reason.

This is about Iran. Israel attacked their Consulate in Syria last week. Iran has now responded. Bibi started this crap.

Nope. Iran used its proxies to attack Israel. Those proxies have found out the hard way that doing so was a bad idea. Iran is beginning to find out the same thing - which is why it is now trying to avoid such a fate through a statement posted to the UN:

"... Iran’s military action was in response to the Zionist regime’s aggression against our diplomatic premises in Damascus. The matter can be deemed concluded. However, should the Israeli regime make another mistake, Iran’s response will be considerably more severe. It is a conflict between Iran and the rogue Israeli regime, from which the U.S. MUST STAY AWAY."

Don't want none? Don't start none....

Yes Israel should not have attacked Iran.

Tell that to Iran. They started this mess. Israel has shown great restraint. Now that Iran has escalated, so too shall the conflict. Iran is scared to death that the U.S. will enter the conflict.

Oh this is good news! At least Israel is turning things over to the guy who orchestrated this fiasco. Guess that investigation in to Oct7 and Bibi’s corruption trial will be shelled indefinitely. The only question I have is Biden in the air yet? Do you think another big hug from Biden with do the trick…you know Zionist to Zionist! Bet Bibi told Biden to bring his check book.
