"blames on Israel" ? I think Israel took responsibility for that attack😐

[imustbecrazy]

Nothing is built.
Nothing is back.
Nothing is better.

Of course - Military Industrial Complex owners need to make more money

The United States says we are trying to avoid war, which is like saying a fat kid is trying to avoid cake, lol.

[quesadilla]

Sounds like the Pentagon is about to fail a 7th audit😂

[ER-krnu]

Why does Israel keep trying to pull Iran into this ?

[ASDFUIL]

Don't you just love how peaceful the world is under Biden?

[travistrimmer]

There is no such thing as peace. There is only freedom or subjugation.

Israel asked for it. Tell the UK to stop using our F-35's in this also.

This is not our conflict, and neither is Ukraine. We have a border to secure first and foremost. Whether we should support Israel (after stopping the invasion of our own country) depends on how that relationship benefits us, but that's a secondary issue, and it should come with conditions:
1. Some reasonable settlement with the Palestinians.
2. Their foreign lobbying group will no longer buy off our Congress.
3. We get full rights to use any technology developed in Israel, at a major discount to us! For example, Elbit surveillance systems must be deployed on our border, and water desalination for the Southwest.

I love how these idiots act like this shit happens in a vacuum and isnt entirely perpetrated by the CIA and MOSSAD on purpose 🙃🤣🤣

[jaysonj]

Maybe mean tweets but peace in the middle east and elsewhere was a better option?

[mardezlant]

And things could deesculate. Thanks for stoking fear and anger.

[marci]

How did you get a training video from Iran?

[active]

To be frank i'm more scared of the Jews raising rents than I am of Iran. Just sayin

[ntksher]

Thanks Bibi. You want us to fight your battles for you? You got it! But wait, we're against war aren't we?

[johnshepard]

It seems almost like we're planning it, doesn't it ?🤔🤔🤔🐑🐑🐑
It's kind of like the terrorists attack in Russia 😂😂🐑🐑

[commander]

Of course it's going to spread.There is money to be made

[duanem.]

The real headline should read "Conflicts in the Middle East WILL soon escalate". Stop playing RISK!

[fueturj]

All right it sounds like somebody finally had enough sad story 😭
