What’s the view your side on what the US and Israel are doing?
It seems to me that the US keeps trying to link absolutely anything done by Qassam brigades and Hezbollah and others to Iran. They’re constantly mentioning Iran. And they’re trying to make sure people think of Hamas as the same as Isis, when they’re totally different ideologically.
I feel like the reason that the US is delaying any de-escalation by Israel is that the US is hopinging that Israel attacks Iran and Lebanon and that those countries respond. And by doing so it gives the US an excuse to attack and take control of those countries under the guise of helping an ally.
There was a really intersting opinion piece that made a lot of sense to me, I’ll try to link it.
The US is overestimating Iran’s influence on those groups to create consent for a war with Iran (and gullible people eat that up like it’s mom’s spaghetti)
Iran explicitly wants the destruction of Israel and Israel is a US ally, so it makes sense the US would not appreciate Iran funding terrorists to attack Israel.
It’s pretty simple, really.
And by doing so it gives the US an excuse to attack and take control of those countries
This is just nonsense. The US controls neither Iraq nor Afghanistan so its absurd to suggest they’d want to control Iran or Lebanon.

Exactly. It like watching the US back in the 2000’s constantly talk about WMDs as a pretext to attack and destabilise the middle east once again.
This is because Iran funds them.
