    At least someone is acting rationally about how Israel’s actions could lead to WW3

    Brown said the U.S. continues to talk with Israeli leaders and warn against widening the conflict. He said a key message is “to think about the second order of effect of any type of operation into Lebanon, and how that might play out and how it impacts not just the region, but how it impacts our forces in regions as well.”

    Pentagon officials have said that Austin has also raised concerns about a broader conflict when he spoke to Gallant in a recent phone call.

    “Given the amount of rocket fire we’ve seen going from both sides of the border, we’ve certainly been concerned about that situation, and both publicly and privately have been urging all parties to restore calm along that border, and again, to seek a diplomatic solution,” said Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder, the Pentagon press secretary, last week.

      They are just afraid that it’s going to have a massive toll on israel. They couldn’t care less about what will happen to non ally countries

        Israel can’t even genocide Gaza on their own…

        If they start a war at the same time, they’ll lose immediately if they don’t drag America into it.

        And Biden has spent 50 years saying that no matter what happens, he’ll never stop or even slow support to Israel.

        Iran is allied with Russia and other local governments in the 4+1 treaty, so trump would likely join against Israel.

        Either way, the US is gonna be involved if it happens, which isn’t a good thing.
