Honestly, that's probably exactly what the US wants.

I'm sure people like Vicky Nuland and Lindsey Graham are salivating for this.

Ameribro here. I do not want this. I want us to stop Israel from committing genocide in Gaza, not start a global conflict that's going to get untold number of people killed, maimed, and displaced over defending fucking genocide. My government, however, is fucking insane, and seems quite partial to ~~boosting Ratheon and Lockheed stocks~~ getting everyone killed.
