It would not matter what Israel did.

They could toss Palestinian children screaming into piranha tanks, and those pompous assholes on CNN would fall all over themselves to praise Israel for its restraint.

Anyway, the war is going exactly as Israel and the United States want it to. Israel seeks to goad Iran into a response so that Israel can run screaming to its American thug. If Israel does not get the response it seeks, it simply acts more outrageously until it gets what it wants.

There is no master plan here, no eleven dimensional chess. Only Iran, desperately trying to avoid a war that Israel wants and one way or another, will get. It reminds me of Iraq's efforts to prove that it did not have WMDs, when th eBush Administration (and Israel) were bound and determined to go to war on any possible pretext.

Biden was blabbering away on mainstream news with an apology to indigenous people who suffered through residential schools. It was enough to make anyone who knows anything about what Biden accepts in the present day vomit. Apparently it is A-OK for the US to send bombs and ammunition to Israel to kill as many kids as they want. The reporting tried to make it sound as if Biden was being a great guy. I would never call those presently governing us animals. I would never insult animals in that way.
