Israel’s norm-breaking airstrike on an Iranian embassy (!) in Damascus appears to have led Iran to loosen the leash on its proxies, who are now attacking an American base.

American troops are now being attacked over Israel’s hubris.

It's obvious that Netanyahu wants to provoke a broader international war which he expects US to be involved in.

Happening before our eyes.

You hear people saying World War III has already started and that's starting to look more true by the day

Sorry, but they are not Iran Proxies!

They are millions of people who remember, when the Pentagon official decided to bomb seven west asian/african countries. Do you think they forgot.

Iran did not put any gun to their heads. They are organized, networked, but sovereign!

Is it ever justifiable for one country to use force in another's territory?

Israel is bombing sovereign countries throughout the region. Is their goal to entangle themselves and the US in more wars? Israel is a rogue nation and must be dissolved.
