God bless America. Tensions in the Middle East are rising, which could affect the markets. Take this as a sign to spread out your investments and protect yourself from potential risks.

Israel is going to do whatever they want to do because they know the U.S. is always gonna help them.

[Harriz]

Didn't Israel say they didn't need America's help? Leave them be, let them answer for their actions.

What your anti war Member of Congress won't tell you is how many billions is going to defense contractors in their district and state.

If we want to de-escalate, why are we sending any weapons at all to any Middle East country ?

[MidaBouguerha]

Be specific. U.S govt is giving military aircrafts to Israel for free again

[patriciael-nazer]

Weak reporting....Why not hold Israel accountable for the assassination? Why not hold Israel accountable for blocking all efforts for a ceasefire? Why not hold Israel accountable for genocide?

[RobertBalderas-gh]

Why is Palestine not being defended from the Israeli regime??

[rsun]

As Israel noticed that Itan is not attacking, so Israel is going for war by itself
