    Israel has nukes. And I for one think it’s much more likely that they’ll decide to go out in a blaze of glory if they think that’s the only option, like if their main ally abandons them. Did you consider that possibility? That Israel might decide to start WW3?

      I have a feeling Israel would rather just stop invading other countries and genociding Palestinians than instigate a nuclear holocaust and killing all of themselves. Seems like the smarter open, no? It’s not like they haven’t been slapped down by the US before. They always go too far. This has happened before and will happen again.

      Hell, even Reagan and HW have withheld arms and money to Israel before for invading Lebanon or taking over Gaza or West Bank settlements, and that was after they had nukes. Biden is to the right if Republicans on this issue.

        I’m sure that’s exactly what will happen; that the bombs will only kill the people you don’t like and won’t hurt anybody else whatever. Because that’s how atomic bombs work, right?
