Yeah I was shocked to be honest. Even more shocked when the government here in New Zealand came out with a bunch of Trump/Netanyahu talking points. The war is a huge gamble and self-defeating, we'll eventually see some kind of revenge attacks against U.S. bases (and/or citizens) around the world. I listened to a clip by Alex Jones the other day and he said that all the generals were against recommending this war, except for the general at CENTCOM. Not sure if it's true but it sounds right. Why would a trained military person recommend a war that has global consequences, when there is no threat to the United States? The cost/benefit of this doesn't work for the U.S. but for Israel it's just great, they can one day expand their borders.
