    He said the United States would not support a retaliatory strike against Iran’s retaliatory strike.

    A retaliatory strike just happened. What’s Biden’s move?

      No doubt a sternly-worded press release!

      Well, the Biden Administration did not support it in the sense that they din’t send their missiles along and no US launch infrastructure was used.

      They never actually said they were against it much less they would punish Israel for it.

      The use of a “we won’t help doing it” fromulation in a way that can be misinterpreted as “we’re against it” so that they can have plausible deniability later when it turns out they’re not really against it is pretty standard doublespeak from the US Administration.
