It needs to be done. What I don’t get is the need for our
side to telegraph our (or our allies) punches every time
something comes up.

What Israel does, we don’t have to do. And what Israel does
will likely be favorably sanctioned by Saudi Arabia and a
bunch of other nation states that will be in extreme danger
once Iran has operational nukes.

Many of those nation states in the region know who the kooks
are and who they can actually trust.

Remind us what time and date the Bible tells us it will happen.

Thanks in advance.

You do realize that had to have been written over 2,000
years ago, and there have been military conflicts over
there many times since.

Some day it will happen. That doesn’t mean it will be
in our lifetimes, or not.

It’s not about Ameirca. If the Israelis think it has to be done they will do it. And they don’t care what Washington says.

Israel knows where on the map Iran is.

The way I see it, the more Biden coddles Iran and tries to complete the undone Obama deal, the more likely, rather than less, this happens.

Agreed.

One has to wonder what the Israelis know about Biden. They for damned sure don’t trust him any more than anyone else.

I though the Iran deal was finally dead in the water.

Posted with the caveat that no one, not even Biden, knows the truth about anything this ridiculous administration is doing.

Your bible says Israel will strike Irans nuclear reactor in 2023? Good bible. I go by words like, “might” and “could.” Anyone can say might. Like my dog or the bagger at H‑E‑B. You say, “might,” all credibility is lost.

“ Didn’t the Israelis already do this once? Or was it Syria or Iraq?”

You mean Iraq in 81? Yeah, and 20 years later how many intelligence agencies said Iraq had nukes?

“ My bible says it will happen. Maybe pick one up sometime.”

Unless is in the Old Testament, I probably didn’t see the line in your bible. I’m one of those Zionist hoodlums.

It’s not going to be in the form of an airstrike.

Even though the IAF is more than capable, especially now with the F-35 and their EW assets, they’ll continue to sabotage the program from the inside as they have been doing over the past decade or more.

Computer viruses, selective assassinations, weapons labs go boom, etc.

1. Israel will know when it needs to be done.

2. When it needs to be done Israel will do it.

The history of Israel shows that the one time
Israel didn’t strike first, it came very close
to losing. They learned from that and won’t make
that mistake again.

Am Yisrael Chai!

“ Chances high they won’t do this. Because they will get and barrage of Shahed drones in return and who knows else.”

That’s coming in any case.

It’s silly to think Iran doesn’t expect this.

The question is how Iran & Israel behave after it does.

Why didn’t it come already then?

Quadcopters? Common Iranian drones are not quadcopters. Much bigger and stronger.

I always have to check to see if HR McMaster is the General who looks like Red Forman from That Seventies Show.

He isn't.

That it hasn’t yet does not mean it won’t.
