Biden must resign if he greenlit Iran’s strike on Israel

An anonymous Turkish diplomat told Reuters this week that Turkey played the role of a back channel intermediary between the United States and Iran in the run-up to the Iranian missile strike in Israel. According to the source, Tehran informed Turkey of its plans for the strike in advance in an effort to limit the potential for further escalation. In response, the U.S. allegedly conveyed to Tehran through Ankara that any action would have to be “within certain limits.” The White House has denied the claim.

But if the report is accurate, and, in particular, if President Joe Biden greenlit a strike against a key American ally, he must be compelled to resign the presidency immediately. Such an act, even if taken with the apparent best long-term interests of the ally in mind, represents a stunning betrayal that has the potential to erode trust among allies around the globe. Given the swift rise of the authoritarian axis in the East in recent years, coupled with America’s waning global influence, a scandal of this magnitude must not be tolerated.

While the alleged approval for the strike is disorienting for a number of reasons, it fits within Biden’s overall stance toward Tehran, which is largely indistinguishable from that of former President Barack Obama. In the Obama-Biden view, Iran is not a rogue nation bent on the destruction of the West — the frequent “death to America” chants by lawmakers and citizens notwithstanding — but a rational international actor that can be reasoned with and bought off at the right price.

How about we get and stay the hell out of the Middle East and its centuries old tribalism?  Have we not more productive things to do?
