I’m doubting it.

Unless Iran makes a very direct and obvious move.

Other than by proxies.

Time will tell.

Seems like sleepy Joe tried to slow things down.

We’ll see what the weekend brings.

I think Israel will take care of business but in a mysterious way.

What’s the point of leaving the Iranian regime and nuclear program alone when we’re already going to war with two of Iran’s terror proxies?

More importantly...why aren’t we? They killed one of ours and attacked others.

Our proportionate response should be to send a missle up the mullahs’s collective azzes and destroy their nuke system as best we can [since we allowed it to be buried deep underground or so I have read.]

And dare China or Russia to make a peep in protest. {China is not quite ready and Russia is pretty bled out right now.]

Just a dream I guess...feckless, weak and doddering FJB, Zerohissef and the whole hee-haw dumblecrat gang won’t allow such a bold move.

All bets are off.

This has been elevated above "common sense" to the ultimate hate level on both sides.

Let's hope and pray it is not armageddon -- but who knows?

They’d need refuel tankers. They got them?
If not the US should refuel them in midair. Get ‘involved’ and confront Putin with the semantics.

The Iranian situation will only worsen so how does it make sense to keep putting it off?

we’ve owed Iran since the hostage situation and the time they killed 241 of our marines. They are still the largest national supporter of terrorism according to DOD and State. And they continue to take hostages for tribute. What more is needed? The war in Gaza is just the latest reason.

Iran is dangerous if it has a nuke. But if somebody takes out their nuke capacity, then this danger goes away.

Iran is surrounded by Muslim nations and cannot easily send an army into a non-Muslim nation to fight a war. Their armored divisions are not about to roll into Israel.

They are a terrorist nation, but the world lives in that shadow no matter what.

Iran has no real friends, no real alliances. If someone were to stage a major attack against Iran, removing their nuclear capability, what happens next? What are the repercussions? Frankly, I'm not sure I see any. Of course, we live in a world where "you don't do that". But we clearly live in a world where Hamas "does that". I think it's time some nation just takes out Iran.

On Bannon’s War room today I think I heard Eric Prince estimate there are 300 miles of tunnels under Gaza. It seems to me the only way to deal with that situation short of using bunker busters and leveling all above-ground structures is to gas the tunnels.

Or will Israel go the mysterious route?

I think they will do so by the end of the year.

Iran is the host of many of the world’s problems. They are bad state actors. They set off a nuke? Yes, bring their regime to its end. But for goodness sake, stop giving them money!!!

Then I guess you don’t believe Biblical prophesy about the end-times. It is pretty obvious that God considers them Jews.

Also, Iran is not an Arabic country.

I think Israel has a decision to make: is she willing, prepared and able to do this alone —— without even US tacit support.

Calls from Western leaders have morphed into restraint and waiting. This doesn’t bode well for unified support for expanded Israeli military operations.
