Iran and it's proxies have bullied and taunted Israel for decades.

The Israelis have a policy of "disproportionate response."

Restraint is no longer on the table.

Wel then, the answer to my question is "YES" we are at war.

And BTW, at no time in our history, did the voters remove the Commander and Chief. Imagine, if you will, word salad Kamala running the show.

Austria strongly condemned Iran and backs Israelis right to 'self defense' against Hezbollah.

US, while tepidly condoning Israel's right to self defense, is calling for a cease fire and moving US forces in to help Israel IF there is an invasion of Israel.

Not sure how this doesn't escalate further. I can't imagine Israel not responding in kind to this missile attack. They will probably either fire their own missiles into Iran, or bomb it with long range fighter jets.

Biden and Harris are scrambling, I'm sure, to get Israel to stand down. Don't see Netanyahu going for that until after he's responded to Iran in kind. It will then be up to Iran to stand down, or else this keeps going.

Some of the comments at the X link are priceless.






Several nations are lining up behind Israel. Just one example.

Of course the French are calling for a cease fire

 

[Melensdad]

With or without the US (and several other nations) the question is where will Israel hit in Iran to retaliate?

Some suggest that their offensive missile launch areas should be target #1.

Others suggest that the nuclear sites should be target #1.

But hitting them in the gut of there economy also makes sense to target their income as the target #1.

Could This Be Israel's Counterstrike On Iran?​

Kharg Island Oil Terminal (Middle East Eye). ​

War Breaks Out With America Rudderless ​

Today's Iranian missile barrage on Israel is partly a consequence of America running without a functioning President who could have helped rein in the warring parties in the Middle East. It's also in part a consequence of our proxy war against Russia in the Ukraine. As ZeroHedge noted in its recap of the attack, the Iranian government announced that it had consulted with Russia prior to striking Israel. ​

​

With the U.S. in a proxy war with Russia, Russian diplomacy was off the table. As a result, more people will die. It's unclear as of yet how many casualties were caused by Iran's missile barrage, but, ironically, one caught on video was a Palestinian. ​

​

​

Israel has promised to retaliate against Iran, raising the question of what that retaliation might look like. Coincidentally, the famous military strategist Edward Luttwak suggested a target earlier this week. ​

​

Luttwak: "Israel Should Hit Iran Where It Hurts" ​

In a post on Unherd, Luttwak suggested Israel strike Iran's Kharg Oil Terminal (he uses the alternate spelling, "Khark"). ​

​

​

As Luttwak wrote there, ​

​

This all means that Iran’s export revenues must now pay for a bewildering range of military expenditures abroad, in US dollars rather than home-made rials. Beyond the upkeep of foreign allies starting with Hezbollah, there are the imported components and supplies consumed by the domestic Revolutionary Guards, with its 125,000 troops and a naval force. This includes the imports of Chinese and North Korean missile and rocket components, as well as the foreign-currency costs of the entire nuclear programme which proceeds at a very large scale.​

In practice, most of this cash comes from a single source: oil. It’s true that Iranian farmers grow pistachio nuts and other exportable crops, and that there are some manufacturing exports, even if Tabriz’s famous carpets are out of fashion. Yet at the last count, in 2023, oil accounted for 83% of Iran’s exports. [...]​

In other words, the flow of dollars that sustains Israel’s enemies, and which has caused so much trouble to Western interests from the Syrian desert to the Red Sea, emanates almost entirely from the oil loaded onto tankers at the export terminal on Khark Island, a speck of land about 25 kilometres off Iran’s southern coast. Benjamin Netanyahu warned in his recent speech to the UN General Assembly that Israel’s “long arm” can reach them too. Indeed, Khark’s location in the Persian Gulf is relatively close. At 1,516 kilometres from Israel’s main airbase, it’s far closer than the Houthis’ main oil import terminal at Hodeidah in Yemen — a place that was destroyed by Israeli jets in July, and attacked again yesterday.​

Let me correct the title of this thread:

"US Military Industrial Complex WILL profit from Israel if Iran enters war between Lebanon/Israel"

 

[Melensdad]

BREAKING NEWS: Read this carefully. Twice:

ISRAEL attacks HEZBOLLAH missiles being unloaded from IRANIAN aircraft in SYRIA at a RUSSIAN air force base!

 

[Melensdad]

And if this is true, the proxy war is expanding far beyond the borders of Ukraine.

What will NATO do now?

Russia would have stayed out of it, and would still be a trading partner with the west, if there was NO PATH for Ukraine to join NATO.

 

[Melensdad]

Just an update on the above post

 

[Melensdad]

So I have to ask, is the USA going to fight the United Nations "peacekeepers" too?

Why not just defund the UN now?

 

[Melensdad]

Biden pledged the US will help Israel.
Harris is promising to cut weapons shipments to Israel.
Trump pledged the US will help Israel.

GERMANY is openly advocating aid and assistance to Israel.


Meanwhile FRANCE wants Israel to effectively surrender. And while Macron claims Israel was created by the UN it strikes me that the blue helmet brigades of the UN did not fight in 1948 in the Arab-Israeli war. Israel won. They claimed the territory. As in 1000 other wars/battles during the entire history of human civilization, to the victor goes the spoils. And Israel won. It is there land. Macron can screw himself.



And while FRANCE says the UN created Israel, the UN has been an utter failure of upholding its own proclamations.

Looks the Biden-Harris administration is OFFICIALLY behind an arms embargo. So Biden apparently lied when he said our government would support Israel? Or, in seriously confusing gobbily gook speak, he means that the US position is for Israel to stop defending itself but if it gets attacked then US military will step in to help?

The Biden-Harris administration confirmed on Tuesday that it threatened to cut off aid to Israel’s military, including arms shipments, if the Jewish state does not boost the delivery of humanitarian aid into the battle-torn Gaza Strip. The threats came in a Sunday letter that gives Israel one month to do so, meaning any action would not come until after the presidential election.​
