    Reminder that Iran retaliated against Israel for their strike on their embassy in Syria.

      Don’t let the facts dissuade you from your own feelings.

          I’m sorry, rereading what I said, it looks like I’m disagreeing with what you said. I was actually attempting to agree with you, badly.

    We need to get religion out of politics or this will never end. There is no good side to this conflict; its all bad lesser, middling, and greater.

      Hate to break it to you but these guys would hate each other if Abraham himself told them to cut that shit out

    In other words… it won’t interfere if Israel is the one doing the hitting, but will interfere as soon as any of Israel’s victims start hitting back.

    Riiiight.

    “We’re just going to give Isreal all the weapons, training, and intel they need and tell Iran if they hit back we’ll decimate them.”

    I find it strange that this is being announced publicly. Obviously Israel could have been told in private. Is the announcement simply meant to reassure the American public or is there something else to it?

      It’s directed at Iran. It basically sends the message “We don’t want to attack, but if you do, we will defend our interests”. This makes it clear that the US is not interested in aggression, but will make any attack on Israel extremely expensive for Iran.

        So, basically, supporting aggression, just not directly.

            So, protecting and arming a bully that hits left and right isn’t supportive of said bully and his aggressive behavior?
