I thought Isreal was 50 years ahead of Iran militarily? Why would they need the help of the west?! This reeks of knowing exactly whats in store for them and reeks of American knowing isreal aren't capable of handling it themselves.

Could you imagine someone being bullied and someone trying to stop the bully says “if you try to punch him in the face we will just block your punch that will teach you” 🤦
