'‘You got a win. Take the win’: Joe Biden tells Netanyahu'  those words sound like Obama wrote them.

Why (over this) @Cyber Liberty ?  Despite being a choreographed one act Kabuki production, it still took direct military help from the US, GB, and Jordan with France on the periphery playing Paul Revere to keep Israel's property and inhabitants safe and unharmed ----

You sound disappointed at the lack of success in Iran's attack.

US soldiers were attacked as well.  I guess they should "take the win" too?

Israel's PM has some thoughts:

I stand with Israel.

(I noticed your tagline: Support Israel's emergency medical service. afmda.org)
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

I'm rather in awe at how well this Kabuki production came together ---- not one slipup by any actor.

US soldiers should leave nothing behind except the whole futile sand trap.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
The idea was to have Israel cowering in their homes and bomb shelters.

The reality is Iran is now scared to death, and are crawling into shelters to wait
... for the outcome of what they have done. All of Iran is scrambling and running into nothing, with hair on fire.

All of Iran is shitting themselves ... ! They are begging Allah to save them from Jewish/Christian wrath.

If this were a Robert Ludlum novel, the climax would be Iran's oil refinery capabilities being destroyed as well as their not-so-secret nuclear facilities and research program at the hands of Israel...while Barack Obama is arrested by U.S. Marshalls in a 6AM SWAT team commandeered by SEAL TEAM SIX.

Well for starters Biden is up for election this year. Can't have oil prices shoot up until after the election. That's more important than Israel or dead people.
They are already going up, as are motor fuels. 70 cents per gallon this year in western ND.

Israel’s military, with the help of the United States, Britain and Jordan, shot down nearly all of the drones and missiles that Iran fired on Saturday, in what was believed to be the first direct Iranian attack on Israel after years of a shadow war.

Iran’s attack seemed planned to minimize casualties while maximizing spectacle
CNN, Apr 14, 2024

Beirut, Lebanon CNN — A decades-long shadow war burst out into the open overnight as Iranian drones and missiles lit up the night sky in Israel and the occupied West Bank. Tehran’s operation was highly choreographed, apparently designed to minimize casualties while maximizing spectacle.

This was a complex mission. Over 300 drones and missiles navigated above Iran’s neighbors, including Jordan and Iraq — both with US military bases — before penetrating the airspace of Iran’s mortal enemy, Israel. Israel’s allies helped shoot down the bulk of these weapons, but couldn’t prevent what was long believed to be the Middle East’s doomsday scenario, the Islamic Republic’s first-ever attack on Israel.

Israel’s fabled Iron Dome air defense system did not disappoint Israelis, many of whom took to bunkers. Only a small handful of locations were attacked, including a military base and an area in the Negev desert, injuring a Bedouin child, while the dome fended off one of the largest drone attacks in history

Yet it was an operation that seemed designed to fail — when Iran launched its killer drones from its own territory some 1,000 miles away, it was giving Israel hours of advance notice.

The symbolism of the attack did the heavy lifting. Rather than fire from one of the neighboring countries where Iran and its non-state allies are present, this was a direct attack from Iranian territory on Israeli territory. This compromised Iran’s ability to damage Israel because it robbed the operation of the element of surprise.

The lead time meant that Israel and its regional partners could ready Israel’s defenses, and the operation amounted to little more than a terrifying fireworks display.

I stand with Israel.

(I noticed your tagline: Support Israel's emergency medical service. afmda.org)
Several years ago, we asked some Jewish friends what we could do to support Israel. The husband - retired rabbi - mentioned two organizations, one of which was AFMDA. We've been sending some $ there ever since. It may not be much, but we know that even if we can't afford to buy them a new ambulance, we're at least providing some medical supplies. They respond to all medical issues, from injuries from Islamic bombing to traffic accidents to emergency childbirth. Their paramedics are Jews and Arabs, working together, and they do not discriminate as to whom they treat.
