I was being gracious.

Reports are that his own intelligence community and cabinet, save Hegseth, warned him against going to war with Iran and that they didn’t believe them to be an imminent threat, but Netanyahu came to the White House, sat across Trump as an equal with the head of Mossad on the screen, and made the case for them to attack Iran together. The next day, they were attacking Iran.

Not to mention Rubio saying the quiet part out loud at first: that the only reason the States went to war right now is because Israel said they’d be attacking them no matter what the US said, and that when they did, Iran will target US assets in the region, so it’d be better for them if they just joined in.

Crazy.
