@DavidSacks..possibilities..Israel strikes..wars go from bad to worse. Biden loses in November. OR..Biden tells the Israelis not to retaliate, using all of his leverage to make them stand down. The choice should be obvious but Biden may not be capable of executing Option 2...
So what happens next? Two possibilities:
1) Israel strikes back hard. The regional war begins. The US gets dragged in to help Israel, not with boots on the ground but in every other way. Netanyahu is comfortable with this scenario or he wouldn't have bombed the Iranian embassy on April 1. Hawks in Washington who have sought war with Iran for two decades are euphoric. Both Ukraine and Israel get funding, but US stockpiles are already stretched thin so hard trade-offs must be made. In particular, there just aren't enough air defense missiles to go around. Both wars go from bad to worse. Biden loses in November. OR
2) Biden tells the Israelis not to retaliate, using all of his leverage to make them stand down.
The choice should be obvious but Biden may not be capable of executing Option 2. So war it is.
