“I told Prime Minister Netanyahu that Israel demonstrated a remarkable capacity to defend against and defeat even unprecedented attacks — sending a clear message to its foes that they cannot effectively threaten the security of Israel,” Biden said.
What does the headline mean with “counterattack”? Iran wouldn’t have attacked if Israel didn’t bomb their consulate in Syria. Why is Israel painted as the victim here?
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
It should be a crime to still be using that phrase, but in this case it doesn’t even make sense. What “stupid prizes” did Israel win? The recent strike in Syria killed a high ranking IRGC general and Iran’s retaliatory efforts were mostly intercepted, with the only Israeli casualty as of now is an injured 10 year old girl.
Biden and his senior advisers are highly concerned an Israeli response to Iran’s attack on Israel would lead to a regional war with catastrophic consequences, U.S. officials said.
But thats what Israel wants. Thats why they attacked Iran in the first place.
Iran attacked first, not Israel. The Syrian strike was not the first attack.
