Interesting how the orange buffoon is doing his best to interject himself and the US into a conflict that has nothing to do with us.
"We have control of Iran's skies..." etc.
"We" are not involved. Yet. But dumbass will change that.
Shocker! I agree with Coach on this issue.
For one thing we (the U.S.) have been involved with and has supported The State of Israel since 1948. The U.S. and Israel have had a strong allegiance since 1967, following the Six-Day-War. Also, we have long had a strong military presence in Israel.
Iran's nuclear program is of great concern to the U.S. Unlike Iran, Israel does not deny having a nuclear program.
Although the U.S. only imports somewhere around 12% of our crude oil from Iran. Iran is a major oil producer and a significant exporter which indirectly affects the U.S.
In a nutshell, the Middle East has a long history of conflict which impacts the U.S. both directly and indirectly. Iran's support for groups like Hamas and Hezbollah is seen as a source of instability and a threat to U.S. interests.
U.S. intervention could be seen as a way to address all these concerns as well as help prevent conflict escalation in the Middle East.
Like it or not, this is a small world and what one country does affects other countries.
