Following the opening salvo in Israel’s bombardment of Iran, many members of Congress rushed to declare their support for the Jewish state. Some went further, demanding the White House defend Tel Aviv from retaliation. A small number of lawmakers criticized Israel and urged Washington to stay out of the conflict.

The article offers a set of post from US politicians calling to support Israel and even a regime change. It also points out that a handful of lawmakers did oppose the Israeli strikes. Like Rep. Massie, who was the only member of Congress to point out that the attack Israel launched on Friday was an offensive war of aggression.

    And when he/she said “all the evil those countries are doing” we must assume that is not talking about Israel nor USA, the major terror states, just the evil arabs. It’s so nasty and incongruent that don’t even justifies to waste your time to reason with a war propagandist.

      You “must assume”, then call it nasty.

      You’re pretty nasty.

      I’m absolutely referring to everyone, particularly the US and Israel. That’s why I said it.

        Thats not what you said, you are defending Israel and the violence they are doing all over. That’s why you’re just like them, you are ok blowing up everything but them you are acting like you don’t.

        If you oppose Israel genocide and the violence spiral they and USA are promoting, just do us all a favor and be coherent not justifying Israel’s acts. And just in case you want to deviate attention, Iran must not have nuks, thats where we agree, but with these attacks they (Israel - USA) are just saying to Iran that diplomacy was just a joke and putting Iran closer to get nuks to dissuade this kind of military interventions.
