Israel planned to launch a preemptive strike against Hezbollah on October 11 which was narrowly averted due to intervention from U.S. President Joe Biden, the Wall Street Journal reported on Saturday.
The assault plan came on the heels of Hamas’ invasion of southern Israel and, according to the report, was based on intelligence Israel had that Hezbollah attackers were preparing to cross the border as part of a multi-pronged attack. The U.S. reportedly deemed the information unreliable.
Frankly maybe the US should stop protecting Israel and let them do whatever they want. Clearly they don’t appreciate Biden trying to save them from themselves, and opening a second front of the war is what they want even though it will badly harm Israel. Attacking more Arab countries will drag the rest of the region into the fight and Israel will have nobody to blame but themselves.
Israel has nukes and is run by nutjobs. They won’t use nukes in Gaza, it’s too close to Israeli cities. But there’s no telling what they’ll do the further away a conflict gets.
Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to let those genocidal zealots have nukes? For fuck’s sake…
Israel developed their nukes with Apartheid South Africa and Taiwan:

Also the crazed religious zealots weren’t in control of Israel back then, the survivors of the Holocaust were, and they planned to keep surviving.
