this is so farcical, does anyone actually believe these US 4D-chess explanations of how unwavering support of Israel and impudent demands of surrender to the resistance constitute an effort to “defuse” the situation

pouring gas on the fire and screaming “i’m trying to put it out!!!”

I mean, if a government keeps saying we need more guns in schools to prevent school shootings, are you surprised that they are also saying this?

Hochstein was born in Israel, the child of American Jewish immigrants. A dual U.S.-Israel national, he served in the Israeli Defense Forces as a tank crewman prior to moving to Washington. He was a foreign policy adviser to Democratic Party members of the U.S. government House Foreign Affairs Committee from 1994 to January 2001

Really makes you think

How good was his advice to foreign affairs committee in the years 1994-2001, and how unbiased he is now

An invasion of Lebanon risks direct Iranian involvement. Not sure if they’re trying to call a bluff or if they actually want that.

They definitely want that because they can’t win in Gaza, and they think that dragging burgelanders in will turn things around.

No it really doesn’t. Iran knows if they get directly involved the US will get directly involved. No one actually wants this.
