I think that Netanyahu [View all]

always planned to have the US back them up. He wanted to drag us into the war, and it looks like we're going there.

I felt really shocked and miserable after the Hamas attack on Israel, but when Israel just didn't stop pounding the civilians, and has the intention of exterminating everyone in Gaza, I felt that Israel is not exactly on the up and up. And, Netanyahu consorted with Trump, and that's enough to make me want to vomit.

I think we are going to deliver the bunker buster bombs, because Israel doesn't have the means to do that. I have mixed feelings about the whole scenario, but I don't want to see the civilian population of Iran treated like Israel is treating Gaza.

I think we should fight the Houthis off from terrorizing the shipping, but we don't get a choice when Israel's war is dependent on our assets. We do have troops in the area, and protecting them is a priority.

I think that rump is being led by the nose. And, what was all that crap about Putin at the G7? What's he trying to do there?

None of these current cabinet members have a clue about how to handle a war. We are so vulnerable. You can't tell millions of noncombatants to vacate the city, and then say, "Well, I told them to get out."

This sucks. Every day a fresh hell.
