Yesterday, the world held its breath when Israel mercilessly attacked Iran. We were not shocked but were scared when Iran answered in kind. Today, things are going from bad to worse at every turn. Iran is punishing Israel and it is doing so with a snap.
I don’t think that Israel bargained for what they’re getting: numerous missiles aimed right at Tel Aviv and other hotspots in one of the most terrible nations in the world. Numerous people have been injured and, thus far, only a handful of people have actually died.
Sadly, there are many in this world who still feel that Israel is the poor, innocent victim. Well, you see, victims don’t just decide to up and attack another nation without the expectation of complete retaliation. That’s what’s happening here.
Israel is playing the victim card, claiming that all it’s trying to do is shut down Iran’s nuclear assets. They should have left well enough alone. It’s not Israel’s place to play judge, jury and executioner. Iran is quickly proving that their country will not take attacks sitting down.
As can be expected, Israel has already had a few small victories: a few of Iran’s nuclear assets have been destroyed by the Jewish nation. Sure, Israel will win a few battles here and there, but I think that the world will quickly see that Iran will win the war and they’ll do so handily.
The part that should concern us as Americans is that Iran is warning that it will punish us if we in any way defend Israel, something that we shouldn’t be doing anyway. Iran is warning us that it will attack American assets in the region if Israel attacks its nuclear sites.
Well, Israel has done that, so does that mean American military personnel are in immediate peril? Is Iran trying to puff itself up like a peacock or is Iran ready to follow through with its troubling threat?
One scary thing is that NATO nations could become involved in some way or another. If either Israel or Iran attacks one of those countries, then Article V comes into play, which means, in simplest terms, that an attack on one is an attack at all.
What should concern us is that any NATO nation could decide to sympathize with either Israel or Iran and that nation might take it upon itself to play the hero. Then, of course, that nation will be attacked and at that point, we will be duty-bound to become involved in what will develop into World War III.
Once we step into a third world war, the damage will have been done. If we attack Iran, since for some reason we seem to be defending bully nation Israel, then Russia might just retaliate against us. When that happens, we will be forced to retaliate against Russia, and then the nukes start flying.
Let’s say Russia launches an attack against our mainland at the precise moment that I publish this article. Within the next twenty minutes, Russian ICBM’s will start destroying key areas of our nation. We will have around ten minutes to get our nukes in the air, and President Donald Trump will have to authorize retaliatory strikes.
That’s ten minutes to detect a launch, confirm trajectory and alert relevant military authorities and other interested parties. Then, Trump will be brought in and he will make quick decisions that will help end the world. All this because Israel has taken it upon itself to be the hero. Is it scary that Iran has the ability to make nuclear weapons? Sure, but attacking them out of nowhere is not the answer here.
Diplomacy is the answer, but Israel cannot be reasoned with. Maybe they’re avenging the Holocaust. Maybe they want to be feared. Who knows what their motivation is? An angry Jew is to be feared, and Israel has a bunch of those.
Unfortunately, all we can do at this point is sit back and let things go from bad to worse. Over the weekend, I am certain that things will escalate to the point of no return. In short, we need to be prepared for the inevitable nuclear destruction of our nation and all because of a bunch of Jews.
