Critics have said the US decision to retreat from the region has led to a greater likelihood of conflict
As Israeli jets struck targets in Iran on Friday morning, the US moved quickly to distance itself from Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision to target Tehran in an escalation that threatens an all-out war in the Middle East.
The unilateral strikes indicated a collapse of Donald Trump’s efforts to restrain the Israeli prime minister and almost certainly scuttled Trump’s efforts to negotiate a deal with Iran that would prevent the country from seeking a nuclear weapon.
It also will probably lead to an Iranian retaliation that could develop into a larger war between Israel and Iran, a new conflict that Trump has publicly sought to avoid.
This makes it seem like USA had no say in this when they have directly worked with netanyahu’s government to keep a tight grip in middle east and is aiding the war effort from closed doors
I wonder what happens if everyone in the region starts lobbing missiles at isreal. How long can they maintain their air defense under a saturated attack? It takes time to reload those systems. A dumb missile launched in isreals direction requires a expensive one to intercept it. All it takes is the powers in the region to collectively decide they have taken enough shit from them and isreal is screwed. Not that they don’t deserve it. You can bet trump wont get involved. He needs those troops to put a knee on our collective necks.
AFAIK they’ve tried that before and Israel beat all of them. There’s no contest.
I don’t think anyone in the region has any solidarity with Iran.
I know they all have their hatred of one another. It would only take a two month love affair to do isreal in. Probably not going to happen but you never know.
Wasn’t that kinda the idea behind the 6 day war?
I guess this explains the 20000 anti-drone missiles the US admin diverted from Ukraine to the “middle east”
I’d love to know what happened to trump on that camp david visit. There was a real tune change after that.
And lets not forget that bible-thumping Evangelical Zionists are a large part of the reason Israel has such free reign and support in American politics. Especially now that they’ve completely infiltrated the highest echelons of power in DC.
This death cult want an all out war in the Middle East to lead to the End Times.
Trump is the willing dupe.
Every single major party leader takes loads of money from AIPAC. Democrats included.
Yes, you can bet your last dollar Dems and Reps are working with the CIA to make this happen.

Implying that the United States in any way had attempted to actually stop Israel is journalistic misconduct.
and implying that the united states didn’t help is willful ignorance at best since its diplomats worked to convince the iranians that it wasn’t going to happen.
Yeah what the fuck is this, it’s obvious to everyone that the US supports what Israel is doing.
It’s probably opposite, where Israel was told to do it in order to continue getting support (I say this based on my expert tv show/movie knowledge)
Trump needs a war he didn’t start that he can get involved in so he can claim to be a wartime president. “Can’t hold an election when we are at war!”
This also fulfills the anti-prophecy of him calling himself the most peaceful president ever. He only ever presides over peaceful times.
There’s also a video going around now of him in 2011 claiming Obama was going to start a war with Iran, due to his incompetence at negotiating, right before the election to boost his popularity.
He’s projecting more then an imax movie theater.
Lmao. Trump is unable to restrain his fuckin stupid hair on a windy day. He can’t do shit to influence a single world leader anywhere.
Bibi doesnt want to go to jail
Trump is worse than worthless as a negotiator.
Everyone has learned that Trump is an idiot. He can easily be manipulated and controlled. They all know this. Trump is the only one that doesn’t see it. He isn’t strong. They just let him think he is.
“Flattery will get you everywhere.”
“collapse of trumps efforts to restrain netanyahu”… right. If netanyahu did this against US pleas, then why is the US shooting down the Iranian reprisal? Seems like they’d take trump more seriously he didn’t just support them regardless.
Trump can’t even grasp his dick much less foreign diplomacy.
