      Iran’s supplied Russia with weapons to use against Ukraine, was caught trying to assassinate Trump, supplied weapons to the Houthis to use against merchant shipping and our warships, and that’s before you get to the nuclear weapons issue. Not only do I not expect us to discourage Israel from bombing Iran, but I wouldn’t be terribly surprised if we wind up bombing Iran ourselves.

      “If they don’t make a deal there will be bombing. It will be bombing the likes of which they have never seen before,” Trump told NBC News’ Kristen Welker during a phone interview.

      Trump gave Iran a two-month deadline to sign a new nuclear deal or face potential military action in his letter, sent three weeks ago, Axios previously reported.

      In recent days, the U.S. military sent several B-2 stealth bombers to the Diego Garcia military base in the Indian Ocean in a deployment a U.S. official said was “not disconnected” from Trump’s two-month deadline.

      The B-2 bombers can carry huge bunker buster bombs that would be a key element in any possible military action against Iran’s underground nuclear facilities.

    Surely messaging would have happened beforehand if US had given a green light to Israel before the attack… Right?

      Well the US started pulling personnel out of the area before the attack and Israel is saying the US helped coordinate the attack.

      Those still in Iran have a darker skin complexion than the one favored by the Regime so I’m sure they totally tried.

      It’s just that Little Marco forgot to click “send”.
