Why is the US doing this? 85 raids with more on the way is way more than a proportional response to the deaths of three soldiers in a drone attack. 2/3

The last thing we should be doing at a time such as this is pouring gasoline over already existing fires. If the U.S. truly doesn’t want to provoke Iran, we have a weird way of showing it. It is incomprehensible that at this particular moment we would be taunting Iran and risking so much. 3/3

You know exactly why we’re doing this Marianne. Iran is seen by the Israelis as being a regional threat, so the pro Israel crowd here in the US will always push for a US/Iran war. Israel and their US amen corner want Americans to do Israel’s heavy lifting.
