Salemi) Officials in the US-led multinational coalition that is reportedly preparing to assist in repelling an expected Iranian attack have preemptively warned Israel not to respond too strongly to such an assault, according to a Tuesday report.

“Don’t push it,” the unnamed officials told Jerusalem, according to Kan news. “Think carefully before you attack in return. The goal at the end of the day is not to lead to an all-out war.”

In April, a massive drone and missile attack from Iran was foiled by a coalition that reportedly comprised Israel, the United States, Britain, France, Qatar, Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain.

Re-reading the Old Testament now. Things don’t go well for Israel’s enemies, that is when Israel is right with God.

Conspiracy theorists think Israel controls the USA, but in fact, while there is an interchange between both sides, the USA dictates terms and controls Israeli Govt far more than the other way around.

Maybe if these “officials” shut their traps the first time Iran lobbed missiles, Israel wouldn’t have left Iran in condition for a second round.

Are they telling Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis and Iran “ not to push it?”
The current regime is obviously in bed with Islamic extremists.
Obama and ValJar are running this shit show with a new puppet.
Not surprised they didn’t want Shapiro as VP.
When will American democrat Jews wake up?

Israel is supposed to limit itself but did the US think that was a good idea after thousands of noncombatants within the US died on September 11 (and from disease later)?

Muslim nations cannot win an “all-out war.” They lose every time, and lose badly. That is why Biden-Blinken-Harris-Obama-Jarrett are trying to tie Bibi’s hands.

That's what Trump says about Israel: "the Corleones aint got that kind of muscle no more"

That’s how we use our aid, to create neverending conflict.

For this bunch, the game goal is to get off a 15 yard punt.

No, I did not transpose the numerals.

Israel’s response is probably funnier in the original Hebrew.

Does it bug anyone else that this topic is “jordon” instead of “jordan”?

If so, it's not very effective. US defense spending as a % of GDP is nearly at an all time low post-WW2.

US doesn’t just take it when we get attacked. We go on the offense. Our allies should as well.
