“Hope” is not a strategy.

The neocons have wanted war with Iran for years and time is running out. Biden may do it to try to be a gallant leader. They were enraged that Trump called off their big attack over concerns for innocent lives. They wanted to do all out airstrikes in retaliation for them downing a drone.

Iran and Hamas have blamed Israel for Haniyeh’s killing, though Israel has not claimed or denied responsibility.

It's not likely Israel had the capability to plant a bomb in a state guest house surrounded by Republican Guard in the middle of Tehran. This was probably an inside job. There's a strong anti-Hamas wing within Iran's government and they could be responsible. Or this could be a false flag operation executed by the regime in Tehran.

In other words, Biden sends a message of strength.

Wish and hope - no way to enact foreign policy.

Implied diplomatic and military force standing ready to negotiate from a position of strength. Not the time to go all wobbly.

I hear they paid off some IRGC to do it.

“I hear they paid off some IRGC to do it.”

If the Israelis bought off someone in the IRGC it would have been done through someone known as a “cutout.” That’s someone who is hired, but either doesn’t know who hired him or who believes he was hired by, say, a rich Saudi. If the Israelis hired someone directly, it greatly increases the opportunity for betrayal or being found out. The Mossad is probably the most sophisticated intelligence agency in the Middle East, if not the world. They wouldn’t be so clumsy as to be found out. The whole thing may have been an operation by someone who wants to provoke a war, say, to facilitate the return of the Mahdi*.

I thought I read where about 20 different Iranians were arrested over this incident. Were they flipped?
