Israel is taking advantage of how inept the current administration is. This is like poking a beehive with a stick and saying “do something”. Something will happen, it’s going to be a complete shitshow, but Israel will benefit from it in some way because they started this shit show. Next step for Israel is to sit back and watch Trump end the shit show while everyone else gets stung by all the bees.
I hope both countries bomb each other out of existence before the next election so we don’t have morons voting for the worse presidential candidate, thinking they are doing the “noble” thing by making their lives worse, forfeiting their future in exchange for helping a bunch of poor people on the other side of the planet.
