WE are not at war, and they barely are either. They’ll hit back and forth for a bit and then they’ll stop, just like what happens every single time

Israel made some targeted strikes on Iran’s nuclear production facilities. Iran will probably respond in the next couple days by firing a bunch of cruise missiles at Israel, most of which will get shot down. And then they’ll both go back to mean words.

Iran has been threatening to wipe Israel off the face of the earth for years once it makes its nuclear weapons…Israel has been crashing out but this attack is more logical than anything they’ve done over the past year

If israels sneak attack was “logical”, then they should expect to face Irans logical retaliation by themselves

If Israel is our “staunch ally”, what was the last time they did literally anything for us? What war did they fight alongside us in? Did they send troops to Vietnam like the Australians? Or Iraq like the British? Or Afghanistan like any number of other nations? Well there was that time they sank a U.S. navy ship and killed American sailors…

I mean fuck, Israel didn’t even help fight fucking ISIS, they actually indirectly sheltered ISIS by not allowing Assad’s forces to operate near their borders

u can go to Israel if you want to fight but Americans shouldn’t die for Israel’s offensive action which was NOT agreed upon by the US. The US has staunchly vowed for DIPLOMACY, and Israel hasn’t escalated the situation to dangerous levels. So they can fight this war themselves

Well, at this point Israel has crippled Iran’s entire defense network so completely that all of Iran’s other regional rivals (Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Pakistan) are all deciding its an opportune moment to jump in and dunk on them. And now the U.S. is running strikes too. So Iran is basically completely fucked and you have very little to worry about.

Iran’s main allies were Russia, Syria, and Lebanon. Lebanon got neutered last year when Israel fucked up Hezbollah. Syria’s President Assad got ousted in a coup earlier this year and had to flee to Moscow. Russia lost all its military bases in Syria with Assad, and is still too bogged down in the Ukraine War to do anything for Iran even if it wanted to. So basically Iran is alone, got fucked up by Israel, and is now getting gang-banged by all its enemies at once.

Well the nuclear arms agreements that they have signed that says in writing that they wouldnt. Plus how they were threatening to use them against isreal. Now i dont give a fuck about isreal, however that would be a lot of innocent people dead on both sides. So by destroying their nuclear silos and uranium enrichment plants there is no long that worry.
