I e said since the bombings in Iran started that I felt like this could turn into Israel’s Iraq. Terrorist attack that provided worldwide sympathy and political cover for war, Gaza is their Afghanistan. Netenyahu has wanted to go into Iran for years, just like Bush wanted to topple Saddam. Iraq had WMDs that we needed to invade, now Israel is saying Iran was moving towards a nuke. We will see how this progresses but it’s eerie how similar the vibes are.
