    Bibi is trying to start a war in the region, hoping that it will force US to get into yet another war. US is not taking the bait and its position is that if Israel wants a war, we can sell them weapons, but they are on their own.

    “I will never hesitate to take whatever action is necessary to defend our forces and our interests against Iran and Iran-backed terrorists.”

    ~Kamala Harris DNC speech.

    What do you interpret as “whatever action is necessary”?

    Who do you think “our forces and our interests” are that Iran and “Iran backed terrorists” (these would be Hamas and Hezbollah) are fighting against?

      “I will never hesitate to take whatever action is necessary to defend our forces and our interests against Iran and Iran-backed terrorists.”

      That’s not the same as “I will help Israel with reaching their goals”. It is clear that what she was saying is that if Iran or Iran-backed proxies attack US military they will get a “proportionate” response.
