    WHY is the US getting involved?

    Israel is the one that broke international law and BOMBED an embassy, killing noncombatants.

    To borrow a quote from Biden and Netanyahu, Iran has the right to defend itself. Why would the US stand in the way of that?

    Edit: fixed the name of the country

    Iran said that after tonight’s attack, the “matter can be deemed concluded” unless there is more violence.

    So hopefully not something that will escalate further

    About 31 people were treated for anxiety or injuries they sustained while heading to a protected area when sirens sounded.

    Fucking lol.

    The House’s schedule will change for next week, said Rep. Steve Scalise, the House Republican majority leader, and it will refocus on considering legislation to support Israel and hold Iran accountable.

    “In light of Iran’s unjustified attack on Israel, the House will move from its previously announced legislative schedule next week to instead consider legislation that supports our ally Israel and holds Iran and its terrorist proxies accountable,” Scalise said.

    I swear if Iran doesn’t hit any military target of value then they will have played right into Israel’s hand.

    And something real too like C&C and not some random checkpoint manned by 2 guards with no AA.

    What would even be the pont otherwise, spending 100 drones causing no damage and convincing the USA to screw you over even more.
