An Israeli official told the Post: “We presented the American administration with evidence of Iran’s breakthrough toward a nuclear bomb. There was full and complete coordination with the Americans.”

Iran’s armed forces spokesperson accused Israel of carrying out attacks against Iran with US support.

This comes after Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a statement, "Tonight, Israel took unilateral action against Iran. We are not involved in strikes against Iran and our top priority is protecting American forces in the region.

    Just to be clear, I am not a Trump voter, I’m a third party watching the carnage from the outside.

    Yes, they could have gotten a supermajority together and overrode the veto, but that would have been highly unlikely, given how often that’s ever occurred. And by not buying it, I’m saying that they could have done what they said they did and more, but simply didn’t regardless of what might have happened in Congress. They didn’t even do the small amount they said they were doing that didn’t get called out by any large amount of representatives.

      It’s occurred several times in my life time. And if any issue would have seen another. It would be Israel. Take it from someone who has lived here 50 years and isn’t a third party.

      I’m not here to defend biden. He absolutely could and should have done more. I’m just here to call out the people attacking the Democrats for things that were largely out of their control in that presidential election. Only succeeding at helping to get the actual fascist into office. Not that Democrats didn’t contribute to that plenty on their own as well.

        When you get your underground railroad rolling to get the handmaids out, I’ll be here. Pretty hard to get excited about helping when your own countrymen can’t be arsed to do anything except slacktivise on Farcebook.
