With the intentional killing of the 7 aid workers and the bombing of the Iranian embassy on the same day, did Israel show their genocidal warmongering ass a little too much?
I believe Iran will retaliate against either US interests in the region, Israel, or both. If the Biden administration wants to make it seem as if it is not their own fault, but Iran’s for this escalation, they would need Israel to pump the brakes temporarily. I believe this is the only reason Biden asked nicely for a ceasefire.
Even if Israel agrees (will be empty words), I still think Iran will retaliate, and of course this will give the war hawks in Washington another reason to supply Israel and take more direct action against Iran and their proxies.
Between Palestine and Ukraine, does anyone else feel we’re getting closer to true international conflict? The Dow Jones Industrial Average had its worst day in a year yesterday, which I think is telling.
I feel like they are putting the spotlight on this to distract from the bombing of the Iranian embassy and they’re not going to cut support to Israel in any meaningful way, although I’d love to be proven wrong.
