    Trump doesnt like sending soldiers abroad. The “hurr durr Iran ultimate evil” is tiring itself out and when Trump lets the Saudis, UAE and Qatar powder his butt with gold dust, that isn’t perceived well even in the MAGA camp.

    Israel wants to drag the US into a war with Iran and watch as American Soldiers are dying, while they can lean back.

    What will happen if the first 1.000 kids from the US come back in coffins while Netanyahu or his likeminded friends celebrate how Iran is being handled by the US now?

    Trump cannot afford a war. It would join everyone in the US aside from the few war hawk ghouls among Reps and Dems against him.

    If Israel strikes Iran, Iran will have to retaliate. Then the US either have to “defend” Israel and get dragged in, or they have to drop them.

    Meanwhile the only sensible thing left for Iran to do will be to arm itself nuclearly, so will it be for every country around Israel. This will blow up the Middle East and topple the political influence of the West, as the nations there have to scramble for who will give them access to nuclear technology.

    The only reasonable way to prevent all that is to put Israel on a leach, whip it into place if it oversteps and create a reliable non proliferation treaty.
