What people are missing is why Trump decided to be all in preemptively. It was partly the potential Iranian attack on Israel 5 years from now but mostly the planned Israeli one on Iran. That would have dragged us into a conflict with Iran within days.
There was some mention of this but was quickly quieted down.
And Trumps goal was similar to a preemptive explosive detonation, commonly referred to as a controlled explosion or controlled detonation, is the deliberate and timed detonation of an explosive device
This technique is primarily utilized by bomb disposal teams and military explosive ordnance disposal personnel to neutralize threats before they can detonate unexpectedly.
What people are missing is that isn't the President's call.
If he thinks in 5 years that Iran will do something, then he can ask the Congress for authorization, but he is currently violating the law and the Constitution to wage this war on behalf of Israel.
It's tanking his popularity, and Israel's.
