Biden Says Israel Should Not Hit Iran’s Nuclear Program; Act ‘Proportionally’
Breitbart ^ | 10/02/2024 | Joel B. Pollak

U.S. President Joe Biden said Wednesday that Israel should not hit Iran’s nuclear program in responding to Tuesday’s ballistic missile attack by the Iranian regime.

On Tuesday, the U.S. and other allies assisted Israel in shooting down most of the 181 ballistic missiles fired by Iran, none of which caused injuries or deaths inside Israel.

However, the missile attack — the second in six months — sent the entire nation of Israel into bomb shelters.

Israel is determined to respond and says that it will do so in a place, time, and manner of its choosing. But the Biden administration, which told Israel to limit its response to the first attack in April, appears to want to restrain Israel again.

Bidens diplomacy rhetoric has become nothing but a farrago of fetid fecal fecundity.

So, Israel should wait until Tel Aviv is nuked before they hit Iran’s nuke program? I don’t think so!

Proportionality was invented by losers. Somebody hits me in the face I’ll hit them back in the face AND the balls!

OBiden obviously has been re-reading Bob McNarmara’s book, “How to Lose a War to a Pipsqueak 3rd-World Country.”

“Act proportionately”?? Isn’t the idea to kick your enemy’s a$$ so bad they don’t even want to fight anymore?

The “proportional” argument is immature, childish and nonsensical.

The "proportional response" argument is an evil deception.

The true intention is to make an intended victim stop resisting a predator with any effective means.

The correct response to a predator attack is an overwhelming counterstrike.

Does Netanyahu want a major confrontation with Iran before November 5 in the hope of damaging Biden Harris?

He should keep his stupid trap shut. You don’t express recommendations to allies in public unless there is a reason to do so.

it’s a good thing that the U.S. didn’t act “proportionately” against japan when it sneak-attacked the U.S. during WWII ...

Proportionality can easily have a positive gain.

Biden and Obama don’t want to see their investment go up in flames.

OK lets be proportional. Israel should launch 181 weapons at Iran at random. The fact they all hit nuke sites is just random fluctuations in the guidance systems.

Or perhaps it was Allah’s will.

I agree, Israel SHOULD act proportionately!

Determining the proper proportion is all that is left to discuss.

I’d argue for a proportion somewhere in the range of 1000 to 100,000 times the destruction to Iran as Iran and its proxies have caused to Israel over the last seventy years. That seems righteous and just to me!

The IDF should, if they have enough nukes, target the nuclear facilities and the oil fields.

I would give Iran a list of high value economic and military targets and tell them, you will lose one every time we see your missiles even if they don’t do a lot of damage, but if you ever do a lot of damage then yo will lose all of them within 48 hours.

Your choice.
